Books with title The Last American Dragon

A nearly imperceptible grunt, along with a slight cloud of ash, escaped from the monster’s nostrils. “What a rude little human you are,” the dragon remarked, slowly restoring his head to its former location. The unearthly noise persisted, as did the smell. I stood there, speechless, considering what I should do next. The story of The Last American Dragon will draw you into the story of the single remaining American dragon and his struggle for survival. A modern tale, written in the classic short story style, is both entertaining, thought-provoking, and side-splitting humorous at times. A fun read for your young reader, or a fantastic bedtime story!

An ancient prophecy states, "When the last dragon and the last elf break the circle, the past and the future will meet, and the sun of a new summer will shine in the sky." A young elf by the name of Yorsh finds himself orphaned - the last of his kind in a land of distrustful, bitter humans. A powerful evil has turned the world dark and torrential rains have destroyed all the elfin villages. And so, Yorsh begins a quest to find the last dragon. However, he needs help from a few kind humans despite their fear of his magic. It is up to this innocent elfin child and an enormous green dragon to conquer intolerance and wickedness and bring the light back to the world.

An old 10-man dragon in a Chinatown shop window turns Peter Chang's summer visit to Great Aunt, which he had been dreading, into an exciting adventure. The Last Dragon's silk is faded and torn, and its eyes are gone, but Peter finds people willing to help restore the dragon to life - Great Aunt's mahjongg friends, a tailor, a kite maker, a street artist - and he learns his way around the neighborhood at the same time. The banquet that honors the dragon's return to its full glory and marks the end of Peter's visit is also a celebration of Chinatown's unique culture.
