This British series opens with a desperate email from Eddie to his vacationing uncle: the dragon-sitting isn't going well. These two stories are told almost entirely through emails explaining the trouble caused by dragon Ziggy, with added layers from the subject lines and "photo attachments" (Parsons's illustrations). Humor and an engaging format make the series approachable fare for new chapter-book readers. Review covers these titles: The Dragonsitter and The Dragonsitter Takes Off.
