A Tale of Smoke and Courage - Hardcover

by Kristi Jo Alhussaini (Author)

Gabe's quiet afternoon is shattered when a dragon bursts through his bedroom window-sparks fly, books go flying, and everything he thought safe is suddenly in danger. He grabs his shimmering light sword and charges into the chaos, determined to save his home alone. As the dragon roars and turmoil spreads, Gabe realizes this is no solo mission. He needs help.

That's when his best friend Landon bursts onto the scene-roller skates strapped on, his red light sword in hand, ready for action. Together, Gabe and Landon race through the house, race toward the dragon's lair, and together they hatch a clever plan: they'll work as a team, trap the dragon, tie him up and escort him out of Gabe's home-making sure no book, no wall and no memory is lost in the process.

With teamwork, courage, and a little faith, they face what once seemed impossible. They learn that even when you start alone, calling in help, sharing the fight with a good friend, and trusting your heart can turn wild adventure into triumphant victory. At last the dragon is captured, Gabe's home is safe again, and the two friends raise their swords and celebrate-the day is saved!

Filled with action, friendship and a vivid tug-at-the-heart moment of belief, this story is perfect for kids who love dramatic fantasy, loyal companions and knowing that when you're brave together, you can truly conquer the impossible
