Title: The Dragons of Blueland
Author: Ruth Stiles Gannett
Rating: ★★★★☆
Age Category: Middle Grade
    Back Cover Synopsis: 

    "...the last of the books about Elmer Elevator and the flying baby dragon...concerns Elmer's plan to outwit the hunters who have organized an expedition to capture the dragon's family. The plan is ingenious and plausible, the fantasy well sustained, and the lithographs by Ruth Chrisman Gannett even more delightful, if possible, than those in My Father's Dragon." -- Library Journal (starred review)
