The Very Last Castle

40 pp. | Abrams | October, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4197-2574-6 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mark Pett. In a small town stands a castle; no one ever goes in or comes out. Frightening rumors about its inhabitants keep people away until one curious little girl decides she's going in: "Maybe it's something terrible...but maybe it's something else." This brave child's decision inspires community-building and friendship among the townsfolk and encourages readers to try new things and overcome fears, all against a backdrop of stunning pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations.
