Dragon Rider by Cornelia Funke - ESSENTIAL

Dragon Rider by Cornelia Funke. 523 pages, Chicken House, $9.99 Language: G(0 swears, 0 “F”); Mature Content: G; Violence: PG 

EL, MS - ESSENTIAL 

When the silver dragon Firedrake and his brownie friend Sorrel are tasked with finding a new home for the dragons, an exciting adventure begins. Along the way, they meet new friends and creatures and learn the true meaning of home through the eyes of an orphaned boy. 

This book was really enjoyable and fun to read. While it was probably meant for upper elementary school kids, many middle schoolers would enjoy this. Violence is PG because there are some scenes of fighting and a melting dragon.
