Summary: Incredibley detailed!
Review: I have had this book for about a year now and i am still finding the little surprises that the designer has made in this exquisite book! Like the hidden passage behind the curtain, the meal under the cover that a helper is holding, and the detail is beautiful! If yuo spend enough time looking through this pop up book then you will find that behind curtains, under things, the ceiling, backs of things, everything! I could go onfor hours about how beautiful and detailed this book is!

Summary: explore a castle -- no batteries required
Review: This is a wonderful value -- a fun fold-out castle, creatively designed and waiting for a lucky child to discover its many hidden surprises. The large but lightweight book comes with a "working" drawbridge on the cover, and is tied with two blue ribbons. You can "read" the book and let each of the four segments (including throne room, dining room, exterior, armory and bedrooms) appear individually, or you can unfold the house and tie the ribbons with the book covers back-to-back so that the castle is completely accessible as a sort of diorama. Your preschooler boy or girl will have hours of low-tech fun playing with the punch-out characters: king, queen, knights on horses, a jester, a wizard, lady, lord and dragon.

There are hanging banners, a sliding front gate, balconies, connecting doors, chandeliers, chess games, closets, hidden jewels, pop-up furniture and more. There are loads of fun little surprises here -- even a hidden passage. My advice: get this even for a little child who may tear the admittedly fragile cardboard pieces. You can always tape or glue them together, or buy another castle, but you can't always find a fun setup for little ones that requires imagination more than batteries, allowing children to act out stories in an exciting play environment.

Summary: 3-D castle
Review: What a wonderful "book". This three-dimensional medieval castle was a delight to both my daughters, age 2 and 5. It is very sturdy, with amazing details. My 5 year old was delighted to find special "surprises" throughout the castle. It is perfect for travel and packs so easy. Please note that this is not a book per se, but more of a "dollhouse". There are cut-out dragons, princes, princesses and other fun accessories. My daughters will play for hours with this castle.
