Summary: A great medieval tale for children young and old.
Review: I am a teacher in New York teaching the Middle Ages to sixth graders. They love this book because it is well-written, and goes along with our curriculum, a fun read for the children, yet, has so many facts about castles and the way they were used in those times. The children can relate to William, Jason , and the girl, Gudrun, because the decisions they make are the same they would have made. Real action at the end. Can we have more from Ms. Winthrop?

Summary: The Battle for the Castle
Review: I thouhgt The Battle for the Castle was a good book. Infact it was probably my favorite book ever. In some parts of the book I was afraid and scared. In other parts I thought what a great idea. When i first got the book I thought, what is the battle for the castle. This sequal to the castle in the attic is the way to go when there is no other.

William thinks that this would be a great chance to get some training in, so he and Jason shrink themselves to start training.
Soon, they go to visit Sir Simon. Unfortunately, there is another danger in the land. Rats that eat everything living or not. William is left in control of the castle while Sir Simon goes to a tournament.
With Sir Simon gone, can William gather enough courage to save the castle and defeat the killer rats?

Summary: Welcome Home to the Castle
Review: It has been around 2 years since we read The Castle in the Attic which was one of the best adventures my son and I shared together. I was previously unaware that there was a sequel to this engaging book. After reading the first couple pages my son's came to rapt attention. "I remember this now," he said excitedly. He began remembering the charecters and adventures of the first story. Almost immediately we were captivated by this next adventure - familiar, but new. It was like coming home to the castle. Each chapter of Battle For the Castle brings a new depth of feeling and connection with the charecters - and, yes,each chapter opens to greater surprise and suspense. My son said feelingly, "I love this book." Even on Saturday morning when his favorite activity is to watch cartoons on TV, begged, instead, to hear "one more chapter!"

Summary: Why I wrote THE BATTLE FOR THE CASTLE
Review: Soon after I finished THE CASTLE IN THE ATTIC, I began to get letters from readers asking for another book about William and Sir Simon. It took me nine years to know what I wanted to write about because I hate to repeat myself in books. If I simply write the same thing over and over again, I bore myself and I know I shall bore the reader. So I decided that William should be twelve, two years older, and therefore he should have different problems to face.EN
