In ancient China during the Han Dynasty, a young slave girl toils away for a lazy and cruel master. Unloved and orphaned, the girl does not even know her name until in a remarkable moment of courage, she helps save an ageing dragon and her life is changed forever. Now, she must travel across China protecting a mysterious stone that is vital to the dragon. As they journey over mountains and face an evil dragon hunter, the young girl and the old dragon form an unlikely and powerful bond.

Nominated for the Children's Book Council of Australia Awards short list, this novel tells a story of the magical and majestic world of dragons, the power of believing in oneself, and the meaning of courage.

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 !!
