Dragonsdale reminds me a bit of the Harry Potter books - it's full of mystery and adventure. My favourite bit of the book was when Cara and Sky ran away and spent the night on the hills. My favourite character was Sky the dragon. I have a picture of her in my head and I imagine her to be really beautiful with bright green eyes and matching scales.

I don't normally like books about
dragons 'cause they scare me a little bit but this book wasn't so bad. I felt sorry for
Cara when she couldn't ride Sky but I was glad when it all got sorted.

Dragonsdale is my kind of book.
I love books like this. It was my birthday last week and my brother bought me this book and another one which wasn't as good as this one. My favourite character was Hortense
'cause she was always stroppy and likes getting her own way like me.

I loved
Dragonsdale. I thought it was mean when
Hortense whipped Skydancer. He didn't deserve it.
My favourite character was Cara, she is
really like me. I think that book is definitely in my top five because I really like adventure books. And Huw was so mean. Skydancer was really cute. Breena was friendly and Drane was really funny!

I thought it was ok but it was a bit too long and
there is no special bits in it. I would've liked to have had more interesting bits in
it. I still prefer horses to dragons.

I don't normally read books like this but
I thought it was brilliant. I really enjoyed it. My favourite was
Hortense as he was stroppy all the time and
Cara was great as well.

Dragonsdale
is one of my favourite books. It has
lots of exciting things inside it. Cara
and Sky are both friends, and I think
they should always be best friends, and
I was really happy when Cara's dad let
her ride Sky. I love all the dragon
books; first is Dragonsdale and
second is Dragon Keeper. I love dragons and will always love them. I'm glad it was a happy ending!

Dragonsdale is not the sort of book
I would normally read but I enjoyed reading it a lot.
I felt sorry for Cara when she couldn't fly
Sky but it was all back to good when it got sorted.

I think this book is quite adventurous. I love to read books like that.
I loved it when Cara rode the dragon but it could have some adjectives.

It's ok but it is not my kind of book because it's a bit sad. My favourite character was
Cara 'cause she was pretty.

I like the dragon but it is sad when her dad says that she can't go to the
championships. Then I found it on the computer, then
I decided to buy it. Then when I read it it was great and
I even liked Cara and Sky.

I think Dragonsdale is ok but I think that it couldn't include dragons because it scares people when they read it at night.
