This book is amazing! It's about a boy called Edward who goes on holiday with his Uncle Morton to a country called Magnolia. They are looking for the Great Dragon Battle Ceremony. This was my favourite part as the dragons flew around in different directions and no-one was hurt. The illustrations by Garry Parsons made the book better because it helped me understand the story as I was reading it and they were very good visually.

Eddie, Emily and their mum go to stay on Uncle Morton’s island to look after his dragons.The island is full of surprises… This is sophisticated storytelling in a really accessible format, no wonder the series has now reached number ten.”Hilariously funny book to read. Story format is told in the form of letters between Eddie and his uncle Morton who owns dragons. As a surprise for Edd...
