Elmer and the Dragon


Title: Elmer and the Dragon
Author: Ruth Stiles Gannett
Rating: ★★★★☆
Age Category: Middle Grade

    Back Cover Synopsis: 

    "The author has produced a sequel to My Father's Dragon that is the equal of that first gem in every respect. Flying back home from Wild Island, Elmer and the dragon are forced down in another land where dwell all the escaped canaries of the world. Rich, humorous, and thoroughly satisfying fare ... Highly recommended." -- Library Journal (starred review)
    "A fresh and original plot, delightfully logical nonsense, appealing characters and irrepressible humor." -- The New York Times
