5 out of 5 stars YOUNG WIZARD GAINS MORE KNOWLEDGE   January 1, 2009
so all of the ology books, had never heard of them but they were what my nephew wanted santa to bring him, so searched online an found them all. an have to say WOW while shopping around after buying them here online i know i saved myself a million bucks ;0) all of these same books at stores were 30.00 for the same book. ny nephew loved them an has been working on making me a large paper dragon for my birthday ;-) woo hoo great work guys you are awesome


4 out of 5 stars Great illustrations   November 20, 2008
The illustrations in this book are really beautiful. I was drawn to the watercolor paintings in this book. If you're a hard core dragon fan, there aren't too many interesting dragon facts in here. I'd say this book is worth getting for its art, not for its content (if you are an adult anyway)

My grandson recently stated that he was "into" dragons. With that in mind this was an early Christmas purchase. Well I have to say that I am thoroughly pleased with this purchase; it almost makes me wish that I was a girl again as any child going through the pages of this book is going to experience an adventure.

this book is really nice,, it is made to look old but is actually new, if you are at all into dragon books or any of the "Harry potter" type of stuff, as my nephew (10 years old)is you wont be disapointed in this book,, he loved it, he carts it around everywhere, spending hours looking at each page, worth every penny i paid


5 out of 5 stars Entertaining book for the younger reader   October 6, 2008
My daughter really liked this book. I didn't read it so I can't say too much more than that.
