Dragon keeper was the most wonderful book I've ever read in my whole entire life. This book made me change to a completely different person. The wonderful adventure of Dragonkeeper and Garden Of The Purple Dragon made it unforgetable for me. The wonderful adventure of Ping, Danzi and Kia are what made the book so interesting and unforgetable. when you read it, it fells like as if you really are in the book and you are in the adventure too! I hope Carole Wilkinson could write another book that continues the adventure.

It's fantastic!

I read the 'Droagonkeeper' and found that it was one of the best books that i read!
It really made me stop and think how brave Ping was and how determined she was!
'Dragonkeeper' is a really good book that I recomend to ages 10 to 14!!!

It is truly an amazing journey !!
