What do a minch-wiggin, a Queen, and a rather large magical pup have in common? They need to find the dragon that has turned their worlds upside-down... even if it means revealing all they want to keep hidden. A delightfully pleasing whimsical fantasy novel for readers who love Cressida Cowell or Katrina Nannestad. There are Three Great Secrets in Hallow, a country that loves secrets almost as much as it loves green jellybabies. No, I'm not going to tell you anything more about them. I am a loyal citizen of Hallow, and would never betray- Oh, you have jellybabies? Green ones? Well, I suppose I could tell you a little more. All right then. Come closer. Open your ears and your heart, and pass the green jellybabies. I will tell you a story about a large magical pup, a child Queen and a minch-wiggin with the very unfortunate title of Destroyer-of-Dragons. A fascinating tale filled with falsehoods, fortitude and friendship, and just the right number of green jellybabies from the award-winning author of A Clue for Clara and Museum of Thieves.
