Excerpt Kirkus Indie Review- Dragon Quest
A misfit dragon’s uphill climb to graduate from Dragon Academy takes an unexpected turn in this fine children’s fantasy.
Ryan, the author of a Caribbean-inspired trilogy for adults, deftly layers her debut children’s book with gentle but effective lessons in empathy and friendship. Throughout this light, lively fantasy, she offers colorful imagery, lightly spun with messages of compassion and respect for others
An engaging story of a sensitive dragon who finds his strength and courage.
Excerpt : Reader’s Favorite Book Review
Nora Ryan’s Dragon Quest is fast paced, interesting and thought-provoking. It is written for children aged eight to ten and is thus an easy read for adults. On the other hand, it is a story that should be read by teens and adults as well, to remind them of the things that are most important in life. As Soot struggles to become a member of the dragon brigade, he learns that how one wins a contest is more important than winning the contest itself.
