INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Drake, Salamanda

Dragonsdale

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Gilly Marklew. Cara is the Dragonmaster's daughter in Drake's feudalistic fantasy society where dragons help protect human settlements from firedogs and other dangerous beasts. Though her worried father forbids it, Cara longs to be a dragonrider. The love between no-nonsense Cara and her beloved dragon Skydancer grounds a plot that rises above standard animal-adoring-girl fare to encompass rivalry, danger, and family conflict.
