The adventure continues in this exciting companion to The Castle in the Attic.

As William turns twelve, he wonders if Jason is still his best friend. In the past year, Jason has grown a foot taller, while William is still a shrimp. When Jason challenges William to “jump the trains,” William is terrified. How else can he prove himself to Jason? William gets his answer when his former housekeeper sends him a magic token that once again transports him to Sir Simon’s castle in the Middle Ages, this time with Jason. There the two friends face a dangerous army of rats and their gigantic leader. Once before, William was a hero in Sir Simon’s day. Now it’s up to William to destroy the rats and save the kingdom in the final battle for the castle.

Children's Literature

The daring and thrills of living in a medieval castle, participating in jousting contests and then trying to rid the countryside of a frightening evil force should be enough to keep all readers glued to their seats. This is a gripping sequel to The Castle in the Attic. The magic token William's former nanny sends him for his 12th birthday allows him to shrink to the size of the toys in his castle. Once their size, he becomes part of their world. He is soon enmeshed in a battle to save Sir Simon's kingdom. Along with his buddy Jason, William learns the true meaning of heroism.
