Do you like dragons? Tell me about it and you can win a copy of Firelight, a new book by Sophie Jordan.
Firelight is about a girl named Jacinda who is a draki, or a descendant of dragons. She breaks a tenet of her society and is banished to live with the mortals. And then the girl meets boy, star-crossed love story begins.
My own favorite dragon is Eustance Scrubb, who is temporarily transformed from a human in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis after “sleeping on a dragon's hoard with greedy, dragonish thoughts in his heart.”
In the comments box below, tell me about your favorite dragon. I'll pick a winner on Monday, November 8th and announce it here and on twitter. Just make sure you remember to leave a way for me to contact you!
I have two sets of favourite dragons - the ones in Tamora Pierce's Immortals series, because they're beautiful and Kit makes me laugh, and the ones in Susan Fletcher's Dragon Chronicles series, because they seem real.
ReplyDeleteGoing back to my childhood I always think of Pete's Dragon. More recently I've enjoyed the Dragons in Jessica Day George's Dragon Slipper books.
