Product Description

Product Description
When Jerry, Jimmy and Cathy discover a tunnel that leads to a castle, they pretend that it is enchanted. But when they discover a Sleeping Princess at the centre of a maze, astonishing things begin to happen. Amongst a horde of jewels they discover a ring that grants wishes. But wishes granted are not always wishes wanted, so the children find themselves grappling with invisibility, dinosaurs, a ghost and the fearsome Ugli-Wuglies before it is all resolved. This edition of The Enchanted Castle has forty-seven evocative illustrations by H.R. Millar

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic story, 23 Jun 1999
By A Customer
This is a classic book that I read when I was ten and found again recently. Nesbit manages to blend the world of magic with mundane reality in a way that is immensely appealing. Will spark imaginations of children anywhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars I can't wait to read this to my children!, 18 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This book stands out among all others from my childhood. It stirred my imagination like no other book, and I have often thought of it since. The atmosphere it creates is wonderful and lives on long after reading it. I look forward to my children being of a suitable age to read it to them.

3.0 out of 5 stars Probably great for 9-12 yr olds, but not me, 28 Nov 1998
By A Customer
I read this as a homeschooled 13 yr old. For me, the reading level was extremely easy--but the story was neat. Nesbit has some cool ideas, but . . . I guess her style just isn't what I like. I think I'd recommend this for a read-aloud to younger children. Nesbit *does* has a wonderfully developed imagination!

2.0 out of 5 stars A bit long winded
Although it has its moments, it has alot of superflous dialogue and can be quite difficult for children to understand at times. Read more
