My Father's Dragon

by Ruth Stiles Gannett

A young boy runs away to rescue a baby dragon from Wild Island — armed with nothing but chewing gum, rubber bands, and extraordinary ingenuity. Ruth Stiles Gannett's Newbery Honor adventure is perfectly paced for bedtime: short chapters, mounting tension, a hero children root for completely.
