The Prince of Korin - The Kingdom of Korin #1

Melody J. Bremen

Summary

Prince Endomer of Korin is not a hero. Nor does he want to be one. 
He spends his days in the royal library, poring over old manuscripts, studying archaic languages and playing chess. He's never been like Krollis, his fearless twin brother, who is an expert swordsman and hunts wild beasts in the forests. 
When an army of vizzens, the fearsome old enemy of Korin, attacks from the east and Krollis disappears, Endomer is left in charge of the country. He struggles to find a way to save his people while his soldiers are dying and his citizens are forced to flee. As he fights to gain the respect of the palace court, he discovers a threat coming from within the palace walls. There is no one he can trust. 
He isn't only fighting for his country – he's fighting for his life. 
Fans of John Flanagan and Brandon Mull will enjoy this story of political intrigue and betrayal. 
This is book 1 of 2.

There's a Dragon in the Library

Dianne de Las Casas

“A joy to read out loud . . . A library dragon devouring all my favorite books is the scariest thing I can imagine!” —Eric Kimmel, author of the Caldecott Honor Book Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins   Story time in the library has just come to an end when Max spies something amazing on one of the bookcases. It’s a large, speckled egg that with a loud CRACK breaks to reveal a small dragon. But the dragon doesn’t stay small for very long because he has a real appetite for books. Max tells his mom, the librarian, and even a policeman, but will anyone believe him before the dragon gobbles up the library?   Fresh and bright illustrations bring this story of library adventure to life. A list of Max’s “Book Care Tips” completes this fanciful tale for children, librarians, and anyone who has ever been enchanted by the wonders of the library.   “This dragon tale has all the elements to make it a modern classic and a storytelling staple.” —Stephanie Bange, storyteller, children’s librarian, and director, Charles and Renate Frydman Educational Resource Center, Wright State University “This clever story is sure to delight all lovers of dragons, books, and libraries.
