A classic fantasy with terrific girl power (and chocolate), perfect for fans of Shannon Hale and Jessica Day George.
Aventurine is a brave young dragon ready to explore the world outside of her family´s mountain cave . . . if only they´d let her leave it. Her family thinks she´s too young to fly on her own, but she´s determined to prove them wrong by capturing the most dangerous prey of all: a human.
But when that human tricks her into drinking enchanted hot chocolate, she´s transformed into a puny human without any sharp teeth, fire breath, or claws. Still, she´s the fiercest creature in these mountains--and now she´s found her true passion: chocolate. All she has to do is get to the human city to find herself an apprenticeship (whatever that is) in a chocolate house (which sounds delicious), and she´ll be conquering new territory in no time . . . won´t she?
