| Plot Summary of The Yellow Castle |
|---|
"This is a story about two young brothers who go on a journey to find the real "Santa Claus". It's a very different book than I've ever read before. The boys go on what appears to be a spiritual quest/journey through the mind, taking them through events that are both poetic and frightening which lead them through all aspects of the secrets of life itself, until they come across the truth. "
