Críticas A New York Times bestselling series!Praise for Rise of the Earth Dragon (Dragon Masters #1): In this first of the Dragon Masters series, vocabularly is accessible; sentences, paragraphs, and chapters are short; and dialogue moves the story along rapidly. Black-and-white sketch-type drawings add depth to the story and feelings to the characters (both children and dragons). Emergent readers will find happy success here. -- BooklistThe first of a new series of early chapter books, this entry is sure to attract fans.
