Synopsis

The Castle in the Air is a parable for the modern age. Set in a fictional kingdom ruled over by a vain young king, it tells the tale of a people lured by the promise of future riches, who slowly undermine the environment that gave them life. Only at the last minute do the people wake up to their folly… perhaps too late? The Castle in the Air gently introduces young readers to the negative consequences of environmental damage, resource depletion, excessive debt, greed and vanity. It also introduces the positive benefits of social capital, well-being and community. Suitable for ages 8 and above (and grown ups; who could sometimes learn a lot from children)
