Sunrise Elementary School has a dragon for a librarian. Whenever the kids come into the library she breathes fire on them! But when a little near-sighted girl comes in and starts READING out loud, even the dragon lady librarian's heart melts.

This is for children who have a very active imagination. My nephew would love this book. It is kind of long but very adventurous.

Age appropriateness: Early to middle elementary
Review: This book is an example of fantasy. It is a seemingly believable story that might happen in any school, except for the fact that the librarian is a dragon! It teaches children the importance of treating library books well and it is a story that a child could imagine them self in.

My son likes this book. He even chose this one for me to take to school to read to the class. I'm not sure why, it's not one of my favorites. It's ok, but not great. But I guess if five year old boys like it, it must be good. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 156145091X, Hardcover)

WHEN SUNRISE ELEMENTARY School advertised for a thick-skinned librarian with a burning love of books, Miss Lotta Scales knew she was perfect for the job. Who could guard books better than a REAL dragon? "She kept a fiery eye out to make sure no one removed any books from the shelves.... The very thought of sticky little fingerstouching and clutching, pawing and clawing, smearing and tearing her precious books just made her hot under the collar." The teachers, singed and scorched, formed a delegation. But not even sweet Miss Lemon could convince Miss Lotta Scales that "the library belongs to the children." Fortunately, nearsighted Molly rickmeyer stumbles into a copy of Snuff the Magic Dragon and reads the tale out loud. Her storytelling beckons the children back t the library and brings them face to face with the Library Dragon. Can an open book temper the flames of the school's hot-headed librarian?
