Book Description

A boy and a dragon team up to keep the Pegasus from extinction in this “not-to-be-missed” sequel to the #1 New York Times–bestselling Dragon Rider (School Library Journal). The last Pegasus in the world has been discovered and when Ben learns the legendary horse has three unhatched eggs that need to be protected, he vows to help. But the only way the eggs will ever hatch—and continue the survival of this incredible magical species—is if they are placed under a griffin’s feather. But griffins are the most dangerous creatures in the world, and their mortal enemies are dragons . . . Ben vows not to tell his beloved dragon Firedrake about his quest, if only to protect him. But as Ben sets off for a remote island where the terrible griffins are rumored to live, he may just need the help of his best friend and dragon . . . “A richly imagined, adeptly illustrated adventure with a strong message of respect for all species of creatures.” —Kirkus Reviews

Book Description

The New York Times–bestselling author of Inkheart and Dragon Rider delivers an “inventive re-imagining of the knight-in-shining-armor story” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Igraine dreams of becoming a famous knight just like her great grandfather, but the truth is, life at the family castle is rather boring. Until the nephew of the baroness-next-door shows up. He’s got a dastardly plan to capture the castle and claim as his own the wonderful singing spell books that belong to Igraine’s magician parents. To make matters worse, at the very moment of the siege, her mom and dad botch a spell, turning themselves into pigs! Aided by a Gentle Giant and a Sorrowful Knight, it’s up to Igraine to be brave and save the day—and the books! “Illustrated with pen-and-ink sketches of Igraine in action, plus many tiny tomes sporting stubby limbs and animated faces, this engaging read, or read-aloud, is ‘joust’ the ticket for all young fans of non-gender-specific knightly valor.” —Kirkus Reviews
