The Isle of the Golden Dragons: Grand Duchess Evelyn and the Legless Dragon - Hardcover

by E. Tierney Baun (Author), Creative Graphics (Illustrator), Roberta Drewiske (Editor)

My grandmother was a storyteller. When I close my eyes I can still picture the four of us snuggled close to her, eyes shining and ears listening, while embers burn low in the fireplace. She holds a large book with a worn leather cover, filled with fairy tales and ornate and shimmering illustrations. In those cherished moments, frozen in time, anything was possible. Isle of the Golden Dragons: Grand Duchess Evelyn and the Legless Dragon is a return to those treasured moments, where the reader is transported to a sparkling island in the northern sea that is home to three dragons. These dragons, caretakers of the amethyst encrusted isle, fall ill and are saved with the help of a prince and his sea captain, who later befriends them. In the meantime, a royal family and villagers are sent to inhabit the isle and quickly make it their home. Years later, Grand Duke Maxim, his wife Elena, and three little duchesses now benevolently rule over the isle. The youngest duchess, Evelyn, is the dragons' favorite; they spend endless days playing and climbing together until one day when Evelyn finds a legless dragon named Troika on the beach, and their lives are changed forever.
