Book Overview
It is a rare talent, and only she can care for the Inn's herd. She feeds them, gathers their eggs, and tends to their injuries. But Mella dreams about the dragons of legend, even though hardly anyone believes they still exist. Dragons are small farm animals, not huge fire-breathing monsters. Everyone knows that. Until one day changes everything. A Knight of the Order of Defenders arrives at the Inn. Signs of the mythical dragons have led him there, he says. Then a simple errand takes Mella through the forest, where she stumbles across a dragon's egg--and faces the true, terrifying dragon guarding it. On the spot, Mella vows to get the egg safely to the fabled Hatching Grounds. She must leave her home for the first time, and she finds an unlikely companion in the Defender's squire, Roger. For Mella and Roger, this one day is the beginning of an adventure. Where will it take them?

This book is action-packed and exciting. With the fantasy world of dragon's and people together, and then the "mission" to save "the egg"--wonderfully a page turner. I find myself, as I'm reading it to my 3rd grader, saying "okay just one more chapter"-- and then when that chapter is done, reading on silently-- my son quickly says "mom!! keep reading!!" Read it together.....
An Awesome Fantasy Adventure!

Dragon's Egg is a wonderful fantasy and adventure novel that is so much more! It is also a coming-of-age story and the character development is wonderful...I would especially recommend this book to 4th - 8th graders.
Really good book

My son and I read this book. It was really a fun read. Great story teller. Please write more books. If you liked the Fablehaven, Potter, and fantasy books, read this too!
