From the Publisher:

Recent Praise for RAISING DRAGONS
"In this enchanting blend of the real and unreal, a spunky girl discovers a natural flair for mothering "fanciful critters" when she welcomes a tiny dragon, newly hatched, into her family's home. . . . Children will delight in the exhilarating scenes of the plucky protagonist flying on Hank's back, his wings outstretched, or standing in a field of fluffy, snow-white popcorn (popped by Hank's breath.) Youngsters will hanker to go on this journey; it will set their imaginations soaring" - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
