The Girl Who Hatched a Dragon

By Cristina Santiestevan

Wren believes in impossible things, like dragons and unicorns and magic. She believes in these things as much as she believes in breakfast and lunch and dinner. It's true that she's never actually seen anything magic. But she knows it's real. She can feel it in her toes.

Then, on the day that seems totally normal but absolutely isn't, Wren finds a mysterious egg in the forest.

When she accidentally hatches a dragon from that egg, Wren is thrilled, but also worried. What if it flies away? How will she hide it from her mom? What will she feed it?

Join Wren and her friends, Enrique and Maria, on a fun, magical adventure that's just right for those outdoors-loving chapter-book-reading 5-10-year-old kids who are craving longer and more complex stories, but aren't yet ready for the more serious and sometimes-scary older-kid content in middle grade books.

There's a girl who believes in magic. Another girl who doesn't, but can build and fix just about anything. A boy who dreams up stories and poems wherever he goes. And of course, a little green dragon who doesn't eat anything you'd expect. There's also a tree house to build, a what-do-dragons-eat mystery to solve, a whole bunch of nature too explore, and several meatballs to dodge.

The Girl Who Hatched a Dragon is the first book in the new series: Wren and Duck. Debut author Cristina Santiestevan takes readers on a heartwarming and engaging adventure of nature and magic. Fun for real-aloud and independent readers ages 5-10 and grades K-4. Includes a special activity at the end and a sneak peek at Book 2 in the Wren and Duck series.
