Personal Response:
I loved reading this book. Young, depicts a young dragon who is not familiar with traveling but knows that in order to be the best for his home he must go outside of his comfort zone in order to bring the best back. It’s a tale of of adventure and a mini hero’s journey. I found myself rooting for Chiang-An hoping that the souvenirs he gets will be enough to win the title of the Keeper of the mountain.
