Whether as powerful gods, wise friends, or fearsome foes, dragons take many forms, and exist in myths from cultures all around the world. So turn the pages to enter the dragon's domain.

They take many forms--sea monsters, serpents, wild cats, eagles, and they represent many different things; Gods to be revered, evil kings to be feared, wise friends, and fierce foes. So, when you accidentally step on a sinewy vine and it whips out from under your feet, or invisible forces gently fan warm air across your face, or the acrid smell of cinders pokes at the back of your throat, how will you know whether to stand and wonder, or run and hide? <p/>Dragons have breathed fire into our minds since we could first imagine, but why do they exist in stories from every land in the world? Come in and explore <i>Dragon World</i>. Look into their lairs while they make shape-shifting mischief, playing with the weather and protecting earthly treasures. Soar across continents into tales as old as time. Prowl through the pages to discover rare dragon species. Find clues to track them and master how to draw them. Behold the earthly dragons of today!<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Tamara Macfarlane</b> is the owner of the award-winning Tales on Moon Lane Children's Bookshop, Moon Lane Education, and Moon Lane Ink CIC.
