"the book the dragons eye, the first volume in the dragonology chronicals was very enjoyable and suspensful. the story was full of mystery. it was about two kids named daniel cook who is twelve years old his sister beatrice cook. they were planning to spend a summer with their parents after not seeing them for four years, but their parents sent them away with a dragon proffessional called docter drake instead. there they started learning about dragons through doctor drake's teachings. there thay set off on an quest to stop a precious and powerful weapon the dragons eye from falling into the hands of an evil character. in the ending danil cook and beatrice cook help doctor drake get the dragons eye, and stop it from falling into evil hands. i like the way the author made dragons more important than humans in the story. dugald a. steer made the three characters seem like the only ones throughout the whole story. i also like how the author made the story seem like a diary in the point of view of daniel cook, which made the story much more intresting. the illustrations by douglas carrel were good also."
