I've only read the first so far, but it was highly intriguing and well-written. Being so keen on dragons you may want to check out the Dragons in our Midst series by Bryan Davis.

I've copied it so I can do something with it for my 2 boys who, though 9 years apart in age, both love anything to do with dragons. Love the poem.

I think the movies introduced many new readers to Tolkien, a whole new generation of fans. I read <i> Hobbit</i> in high school and never got back to reading the LOTR. They just somehow just slipped through the pile forgotten for far too long. Have you seen the extended versions of the movies? Excellent. That’s a good point.

The movies are brillantly done (I think) and it was after the first one I knew I had to read the books. I began with the The Hobbit, which I adored, and moved onto the rest. I haven't yet read any of Tolkien's other works, but I would like to eventually give them a try. The books definitely are better than the movies--more detailed, more lively, but I still think the movies were fantastic in their own right. :-) I fell in love with Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings books after seeing the first movie.

Bloggers are friends too. My choice is actually three books in one: My Father's Dragon, Elmer and the Dragon and Dragons of Blueland. The dragon on the cover is adorable, as far as dragons go.

I've heard of that book, but haven't read it yet. I've always loved the name of your blog. Cool, I’m glad you’re going to join in. I’ve heard of that book, but haven’t read it yet.
