I am loathe to drop in on a book here for many reasons, not the least of which is an inability to offer many helpful suggestions if they are needed. But this doesn't seem to really need any. I'll offer only this: I would change "egg" to "shell" in paragraph one, sentence four. Well done!

Thanks. I know what you mean about coming into a book late. It's hard. I appreciate the suggestion. I'll re-check the first paragraph.

You're very welcome.

Hi Cindy, I enjoyed your new chapter abouut the dragons. I think I've told you before that fantasy writing is not really my thing, but I got drawn to your well told story. I would look at the start of this chapter where you use 'scared' quite a lot. I would edit a couple of them. Looking forward to what's next. All best. Ulla:)))

What a wonderful evening catching up on this fascinating and colorful story :). You are so creative in describing your dragons. How beautiful they all are. Poor black, has to learn the hard way! :(. I like how you included white in the sleep time conversations before even hatching! Great touch! Sorry it has taken me a minute to catch up! Trying to suck up all of the new grandson as I can before they go back to Chicago! keep writing my friend! This is unique and wonderful story! xoxo

Ms. Warren's "draconian" fantasy is well-penned and entertainingly told. The logical consistency of her plot coheres in a plausible way; and the dialogue is sharp, crisp, and cogent. The "color-coded" dragonlings and the arrow-pierced pine-cones are nice touches that appeal to the reader's visual imagination. Well-done, O Mother-of-Dragons.

Beautiful chapter the dragons helping the injured brother but also ensuring that they don't become food for one another. I like this small dragon colony, waiting for the next one. Thank you for sharing.

Another grand chapter! Poor Black will, I hope, get the point. The dragons and humans are turning into a nice little community. Maybe Aaron's found the job he was born for!

Thanks! These were fun characters to create and develop. I hope to get back to the story tonight. I have a job interview at 1:00. Hopefully after that I'll make some headway on the next chapter.

Aaron has true leadership qualities which will stand him in good stead in the dangerous times ahead. He is able to persuade the other dragons to show kindness to Black. Waiting to see what dragons will appear from the remaining eggs.
I think that warriors like Red and Black can be trained to help defend the group in battle.

Thanks. Red and Black are pretty feisty. Let's see if Aaron can keep them from eating each other!

Hi Cindy,
What's nor to like about this story. I love your descriptions of the little dragons, and my heart goes out to black. I do hope he learns his lesson and this particular episode teaches younger readers the meaning of rust and friendship.
Great work.

Hopefully, black's attitude will change now that he's shown a little kindness. Your chapter is well-written, very interesting. I love your little story, how Aaron taught them a few lessons.

Thanks. Do you think Aaron might have made up a story to get them to give Black a chance?
