4-6Dragon's Guide series.
Illustrated by
Mary GrandPré.
Dragon Miss Drake and her human "pet" Winnie travel back in time to the 1915 San Francisco World's Fair to meet great-granddad Caleb and solve a jewel heist. A mischievous wish-granting imp complicates matters. The growing dragon-human teamwork, San Francisco–specific history, a nicely integrated fantasy framework, and light comedy combine for a cheery continuation of the series.
