Entertaining and educating young readers through a combination of close-up images, quirky trivia facts, quiz questions, and fascinating tidbits, it's the perfect book for any kid who can't get enough of castles.
Where in the world can you find today's oldest existing fortress? How many people does it take to build a castle? What is the heaviest-sized boulder that could be thrown by a trebuchet? Find out the answers to these questions and more in DKfindout!

The DKfindout! series is one that kids will want to turn to again and again.
