Content: G (mild danger)
BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: SOME
Young Emba has always had scales on her arms and she knows that she was hatched from an egg, but she loves her stepmother, the witch Fred. Fred did a reading from the Tome of Terrible Tomorrows for Emba, but when Fred is kidnapped, Emba throws all caution to the wind to save Fred. WIth the help of Odolf, Emba marches straight towards danger and the evil sorcerer who wants to harvest Emba’s dragon blood.
Originally published in England, there are four books in the series. I like Emba - her friend Odolf is a bit of a humorous sidekick. Moore goes with unlikely and funny details that play against normal fantasy tropes. a good paperback series for young dragon lovers.
