Product Description
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.” It is here that the cousins discover that the dragon’s hatching has designated them “Dragon Keepers” and that not only do they have to feed her, but they have to keep her safe from the villainous Saint George who has kept himself alive over centuries by drinking dragons’ blood.

 Good bedtime chapter book October 15, 2008
My dragon-loving 10 yr old granddaughter loved this book as we read it together at bedtime. It had humor and suspense, but was not at all "scary". One of the neat facets was she learned a bit of the St. George/Dragon legend on the way. We both thought the ending was a little weak. Perhaps there will be a #2 that will explain some of the hanging chads, but that material should have been included in this tale. Overall, though, a winner.
A fun story middle-grade fantasy readers will find compelling. September 7, 2008
Ten-year-old cousins Jesse and Daisy have always dreamed of having a magical adventure, so when a thunder egg hatches and a baby dragon appears, the two kids are entranced. Soon they discover the task of being a Dragon Keeper is demanding - and they are charged with keeping Emmy safe from the villainous Saint George, who drinks dragon's blood. THE DRAGON IN THE SOCK DRAWER is a fun story middle-grade fantasy readers will find compelling.
