Overview

Join the Dragon Protector on her quest to find the rarest dragon in the world in The Dragon Ark—featuring illustrations by Tomislav Tomic.

With dragon numbers in rapid decline, time is running out to ensure the survival of the species. Curatoria Draconis, also known as the Dragon Protector, is on a mission to find the rarest dragon on Earth: the Chinese Celestial Dragon.

Aboard the Dragon Ark, you’ll travel all over the globe and see some of the most incredible dragons—care for Deep-Sea Dragons off the coast of New Zealand, journey into the Amazon Rainforest to spot plant-loving Parvula Dragons, and trek alongside the Ice Dragons in Antarctica. Journey around the world to seek out secretive and magnificent beasts, to observe and protect them in their natural habitat.

"A stimulating voyage for hatchling dragonologists."—Kirkus Reviews

From the Publisher

2020-09-01
A purpose-built ship—“the mightiest vessel most people will never see”—sets out to study the world’s dragons…and track down the rarest of all.
Led by putative author Curatoria Draconis, depicted with brown skin and locs, the multiracial crew of the Dragon Ark sails to locales both remote and surprisingly otherwise on each continent. As they go, they pause to fill in fellow dracophiles on basic facts about a dizzying variety of dragons, from the wurm and the deep-sea taniwha of Oceania to amphipteres perching in a presidential eye on Mount Rushmore and drakes lurking in an unused New York subway tunnel. Dense notes accompanying Tomic’s elaborately detailed illustrations not only record observations about each intelligent, reclusive creature’s preferred habitat, diet, size, and suchlike, but sound warnings about worrisome environmental threats ranging from floating plastic waste to the effects of global warming on Antarctica’s meltable ice dragons. A series of obscure clues gathered along the way leads at last to an encounter with a pair of long-sought tien loong, or celestial dragons of China. Stunningly intricate art features an opening portrait gallery of the crew, an immersive cutaway view of the ship, and album-style spreads that offer finely drawn images aplenty of scaled, toothy dragons large and small, some heavy of body, others elegantly sinuous, in natural (or at least characteristic) settings. (The copyright page credits Emma Roberts with the text.) (This book was reviewed digitally with 15-by-21.6-inch double-page spreads viewed at 75% of actual size.)
A stimulating voyage for hatchling dragonologists. (Informational fantasy picture book. 7-10)
