The Little White Castle: a journey of a prince becoming a king, by Nelson Eulalio

From Boy to Man, from Prince to King - Join the story of a prince and his castle and his adventures and misadventures on the journey to becoming a king. Inspired by the Rites of Passage framework and its endless symbolism, this book is a tale of resilience in the face of adversity. It tells the challenges and lessons based on the four elements and the alchemical transformation within, helped by animal friends and nature. Narrated as a parable, this storytelling suits boys aged from 7 to 70 years old.

“For thousands of years, stories have been a storehouse of information and a most special way of passing on the important messages that are contained within. The Little White Castle is full of beautiful teachings that mirror the journey of boys becoming men. None of our lives will be without challenges, and we don’t know when they will happen or how long they will last. But the ability to learn and grow from them will shape us into who we become, and this story illustrates that beautifully. Both children and adults will be able to read this book and reflect together on how their own challenges can be opportunities to become more loving, accepting, and wise over time. I would love to hear their conversations and give thanks to Nelson for putting his heart into such a wonderful tale.”
Foreword by Dr. Arne Rubinstein, author of “Making of Men” and founder of The Rites Of Passage Institute in Australia.
