The Secret Lives of Dragons
Written by international dragon expert and professor at the World School of Dragons, Zoya Agnis, this book offers all you need to know about dragons. Organised into four clear sections, it explores what a dragon is, the different types of dragon across the world, ancient dragon history and the study of drackenosophy.
Dragons are endlessly fascinating creatures which never cease to excite the imagination. Written as if a factual account, this guide to dragons looks at some of the most famous myths and legends as well as offering information about dragon life-cycles and habitats, their evolution and anatomy. Each spread is lavishly illustrated, full of detail and creativity.
Not only is this the perfect book for children who love fantasy, it makes a wonderful text for teachers to use as a model for imaginative writing about other creatures- perhaps a guide about phoenixes or centaurs. Other tales about dragons could be collected to create a class anthology- and all decorated with illustrations inspired by those in this book!
The series includes other guides- one for mermaids and one for unicorns- and I look forward to seeing what comes next!
