Overview
Impossible Creatures meets The Last Dragon on Mars in this action-packed and commercial middle-grade by critically acclaimed author Ellen Oh!
Twelve-year-old Yuna's life has been hard ever since her family moved to Nosuland. Her mother fell ill with the blood plague and her father's work can't cover the bills. He's turned to smuggling to keep the roof over their heads. Then one day, the crowned prince's guard breaks down the door, ransacking their house and arresting Yuni's father. The prince doesn't find what he's looking for, but her dad is dragged off to the dungeons anyway.
When a boy named Rio arrives that afternoon looking for Yuna's dad, she finds herself taking over his latest smuggling job in hopes that one final job will save her family. Only Yuna didn't realize what the stolen goods were: dragon eggs that belong to prince's dragon army. Rio tells Yuni there's a buyer lined up, if they can get to the meetup before the prince catches them.
Unable to refuse the money, Yuna and Rio set off with the eggs. But the eggs don't stay eggs for long, and soon the pair on are on the run with a quartet of uncontrollable dragons. The more time Yuna spends with the dragons, the more she starts to question whether they belong to anyone or should be free.
Can Yuna protect her family, a kingdom, and the dragons? From critically acclaimed author Ellen Oh comes a story of courage and conviction and the deep friendship between a girl and dragon that might just be key to saving everything.
