Dragons are dangerous creatures---all the stories say so. But after
eleven-year-old Alanna accidentally stumbles upon a cave full of
dragon eggs, she soon discovers that maybe the stories have it
wrong.
"Weigel has created a compulsively likable heroine who seamlessly
blends her strength and compassion, reminiscent of Ben Hatke's
"Zita the Spacegirl." With lovable dragons, flying ships and danger
around every corner, this delightful fantasy doesn't disappoint."
--"Kirkus Reviews"
"A lively yarn whose only fault is that it's over too soon."
--"Publishers Weekly"
Eleven-year-old Alanna and her older brother Hamel are orphans and
doing their best to take care of each other until one day Alanna
stumbles upon a cave full of dragon eggs.A A When the eggs hatch
with no mother dragon in sight, Alanna decides to take care of the
babies herself, even creating a clever costume so that the babies
think she, too, is a dragon. With their large appetites and
accidental fire burps, Alanna learns that dragon babies are hard
work And when a mama dragon finally comes to claim the babies,
Alannaa (TM)s costume is so convincing that she is swept along for
the ride as they journey to Dragon Rock, a mysterious magnetic
force that draws dragons of all shapes and sizes to a magical,
untouched valley.
