DSA #19: Little Giant--Big Trouble reviewed by JP

Dragon Slayers' Academy #19: Little Giant--Big Trouble by Kate McMullan
Reviewed by JP

Dragon Slayer Wiglaf of Pinwick and his friends and also his brother Dudwin go on a special mission to save Angus and Wiglaf's pet Worm. Worm is a dragon that Angus and Wiglaf found but no one knows about a dragon living in DSA. He lives up in the DSA library. But one day there's some trouble?

Knights Noble Conservatory is coming to slay Worm so Wiglaf his brother and friends come to save worm, but then there's even more trouble a "giant" one? Something big takes Worm. Does Wiglaf have the chance of getting Worm back?

This has a theme of teamwork and friendship. Wiglaf in the story shows that he could actually be a Dragon Slayer and Dragon Saver.

This interesting prediction story shows a lesson about loving, caring, and trusting. It's also showing ideas during the story like trust, hope, power, courage, and loyalty. The author is trying to make readers think of what's happening. I think this book should be ages 8 to 11 for kids who like journeys and predictions and great fantasy books. This book is a key or metaphor for friendship because they were all together as a team to help save Worm or will they turn into big "giant!" trouble stew?

In this book I like the illustrations and thought you will too!

This is a great series that you must read.
