Volume two of the popular "Dragonology Chronicles" fantasy series, The Dragon Diary is a fantastic saga for dragon lovers of all ages. Twelve-year-old Daniel Cook and his sister Beatrice are studying dragonology - the science of dragons - with Dr. Ernest Drake. They especially look forward to the hatching of a dragon's egg in their care. But as rumors of a lethal plague affecting dragons worldwide spread, suspicion for the travesty falls upon the machinations of dark dragonologist Alexandra Gorynytchka. The secret to curing the sick dragons might be hidden in the "Liber Draconis", the diary of a wise dragon from a bygone era - but how are our heroes to decipher it? A handful of black-and-white illustrations round out this delightful adventure, highly recommended.
I bought this books for my granddaughter who loves everything dragon. It will go along with the Dragonology: Everything about dragons, including build it yourself model and the first book in the Dragon Diary series. There are not a lot of pictures in these diary books and I think that is a real drawback. But the "ology" book has beautiful ones to refer to. Still I would like to see some color illustrations in these books. They would have to use a different quality paper though which would increase the cost of the item. The front jacket is beautifully illustrated. The book itself is just a black cover with nothing on it.....like a real diary would be. I am glad they included a few black and white illustrations at least.I got mine from the sellers that offer resale items and this one was in excellent condition. So it was a real bargain. I love this option on and use it often.If your youngster is into the Dragonology theme this is a nice continuation. All in all I'm please with it.
I ordered this for my 12 year old son for Christmas ...He loves Dragons and all the Ology books ! My son has Volume 1 (which we also bought him for this Christmas ) and both books are AMAZING. They are very well written ,in new condition, and fast shipping ! I would recommend this series to all children and adults that love Dragons !
This is a great book especially for anyone that hasn't grown up and still beieves in dragons. Get them all any continue to dream. I just wish that I could really have a dragon and be like these children.
After waiting a long time for volume 2 I was glad to find this book. I had enjoyed the 1st volume and enjoyed the 2nd as much. Cute, quick read and dragons too if you're a dragon lover. Story picks up where first left off so it's easy to get into. Really liked it.
My 7 year old daughter, husband and I all enjoyed this book. Something that I as a parent really appreciated was that, there were actual parents in this book. They show up towards the end, but there was a loving family unit who worked together. The adventures the kids go through were exciting and full of suspense! It wasn't dumbed down at all...in fact that's partially why I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5....at times, it was too long winded in descriptions and there was a bit too much conjugating of verbs in dragon language. That doesn't mean I don't hand it to the author for being seriously creative...just, it can be a bit much. My daughter loved the baby dragon and the Dragon Express was so creative. I loved meeting the different dragons from different countries. So creative. Highly recommend. The writing is quite advanced so be aware if you want your child to read this on their own.
Wonderful read and follow-up to book 1. My son could not put it down until he was done.
I am in love with dragons. This book is pretty neat with the pop-up things and letters in envelopes as you go through it. If you love anything to do with dragons this book is for you!
