Publisher's Summary:
For thousands of years, the notion of dragons has struck fear in the hearts of men and women all over the world. The ancient Egyptians believed there was a dragon of darkness that attacked the sun god each day, and in Norway people thought that a dragon gnawed at the roots of the tree that sustained all life on Earth. Around the globe, dragons have been depicted as everything from massive, winged, fire-breathing creatures to beasts sporting a camels head, deers horns, rabbits eyes, and eagles claws! Dragons might hoard treasure in caves, or they might be responsible for floods and the death of livestock. Dragons, in fact, prove as diverse as the many cultures that tell of them. The works of Laurence Pringle have garnered major awards, including the Eva L. Gordon Award for Childrens Science Literature, the Washington Post-Childrens Book Guild Nonfiction Award, and a Lifetime Achievement Prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Dragons from various parts of the world with different characteristics and foibles, I recommend this reading to those children who delight in the world of fantasy. The book is wholly focused on the different types of dragons whether they are beneficent or otherwise. The illustrations by the illustrator of Rabbit and the Dragon king does another spectacular job of presenting amazing dragons in many forms. Brilliant colors and exciting compositions throughout the page. I recommend this book to young readers or adults who just like dragons.
a history of dragon lore
This is a non-fiction book that is exceptionally well illustrated. It tells about the origins of dragon mythology and how dragons are perceived around the world. One of my boys is going through a dragon craze, and even though the text is a little young for him, the illustrations are gorgeous, and the book is fun to read. He has been trying his hand at drawing some dragons - this book has such stylish illustrations that he is trying for a similar look.
