(1) 4-6 Translated by Shaun Whiteside. De Mari combines common fantasy elements in this subtly post-apocalyptic story. An elf child, a young dragon, and an orphan girl endure an epic flight to safety, during which time the true nobility of both elf and girl emerges, along with a moment that will stun readers with its heartbreaking act of sacrifice. This book's combination of humor and deeply felt emotion will leave readers enthralled.
