A middle-grade fantasy series about family, friends, and a magical cardboard castle, and the kids brave enough to protect it.

Michael DeFilippo has been a lifelong storyteller, sharing his stories with his children and now his grandchildren. Earlier in his career, he worked on the early days of the first personal computers, served as a police officer and ran his own business. Now he wants to share his stories with readers everywhere. Crackerbox Castle is his debut series, inspired by family, growing up, and a favorite George Harrison song.

George is a regular kid worried about bullies and homework—until the cardboard castle in his bedroom opens into Crackerbox Castle, a magical kingdom where he’s the prince. With his friends and a young inventor, he must stop an ancient curse before it destroys his castle and his family.
