About this ebook
An ingenious sequel to Max's Words and Max's Dragons, Max's Castle shows readers just how much fun wordplay can be in this winning collaboration between author Kate Banks and illustrator Boris Kulikov.
When Max finds a pile of forgotten toys under the bed, his brothers Benjamin and Karl wonder what's so special about some old blocks. So Max shows them. With some clever twists of both blocks and imagination, he constructs not only a castle but an entire adventure, complete with pirates and knights, a dark dungeon and a dragon.
