The Dragon of Cripple Creek

(3) 4-6 A cross-country road trip is interrupted when gold-obsessed Kat convinces her family to stop at a decommissioned mine. The twelve-year-old wanders away from her tour group and stumbles upon Ye, a treasure-hoarding dragon. Blinded by greed, Kat pockets a nugget, which leads to an old-fashioned gold rush that threatens Ye's life. This adventure, with its vivid descriptions and humor, is appealingly original.
