Dragons in a Bag By Zetta Elliott, Geneva B (Illustrator) Cover Image

Dragons in a Bag (Paperback)

By Zetta Elliott, Geneva B (Illustrator)
$7.99

A fast-paced adventure perfect for young fantasy readers who enjoy Magic Tree House and the Zoey and Sassafras series. Zax is not happy to be dropped off at Ma's house while his Mama goes to court. This snappy, white-haired lady turns out to be a witch and asks him for his help returning some baby dragons to the magical world before they cause trouble in Brooklyn. I can't wait to see what else Zax and this cast of characters will get into next!

(Fantasy, ages 7+) - Reviewed by Jessica
