the Dragon's Child Has A Problem: He Can't Fly. As The Dragon Colony Prepares To Depart For The Homeland, Dando Attempts To Fly, But He Only Batters And Bruises His Body. The Colony Leaves, His Mother Unintentionally Abandoning Him. A Small, Orphaned Bird Remains. The Young Dragon's World Changes Rapidly When The Fierce Doggins Begin To Howl In The Woods And Humans Arrive To Build A Settlement. Captured And Teased By Lord Drum, Dando Struggles Not To Give Up. This Book Could Be Classified As Fantasy, And The Rich, Fantastical Elements Form A Background That Supports The Characters. Dragons, Doggins, And Even The Welkin People All Hint At A World Unlike Ours, Yet Jenny Nimmo Remains Focused On How A Flightless Dragon, A Small Bird, And A Slave Girl Strive For Freedom And Against Their Fears. This Tale Is Guaranteed To Warm The Hearts Of Children And Adults Alike. Reviewer: Amalia Selle
