Series: Dragon Keepers

For Magic Tree House readers who are ready for something longer, the Dragon Keepers series has the perfect length and reading level, along with the fast-paced writing, adventure, and sense of teamwork that kids love to read.

Ten-year-old cousins Jesse and Daisy have

always wanted something magical to happen to them. So it's a wish come true when

Jesse's newly found thunder egg hatches and a helpless, tiny, but very loud, baby

dragon pops out. Soon the two kids are at the dragon's beck and call, trying to figure

out what to feed her. An Internet search leads them to the library, which leads them

back to the Internet, where they find a very strange Web site called foundadragon.org.

Here the cousins discover that the dragon's hatching has designated them ""Dragon

Keepers."" Not only do they have to feed the dragon, whom they named Emmy, but they

also have to keep her safe from the villainous Saint George, who has kept himself

alive over centuries by drinking dragons' blood!
