The Castle in the Attic by Elizabeth Winthrop
5.0
Thank you to the group What's the Name of that Book?!? for helping me find this book again!
If I ever find a used copy to buy, I will buy this book, no matter that it's a children's book, and I, as a rule, tend to dislike them. This novel has a ton of incredible things about it: vivid characters, a great fantasy realm, and a plot that actually goes forward and makes sense.
The only thing that I find sad about the book is that is a children's book! I'd much prefer it being a full length novel (which it could be with embellishments) but no worries. I'll read this book to my children one day and hope that their imaginations will also take them into a true fantasy world!
