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!
