A year in the castle

"There's a lot going on in the castle of King Bolebor--a peace- loving gardener--and Queen Drogomira--a brilliant inventor. There's a princess learning sword fighting so that she can become a knight; a sweet dog in search of an owner; a dragon hiding in the cellar; a gold-counting treasurer; a friendly ghost; an annoying jester, a burly blacksmith--and many others. . . [This book] takes readers through a year in the fantasy medieval castle, showing how castle life changes over time and how each month brings its own surprises"--Provided by publisher.
