"Dealing With Dragons" is such a fun combination of strong characters, goofs, magic, and action. I read this so many times as a young reader, and it is a keystone book on my shelves. I'm happy to say it has held up for me over the years and all the rereads! :)

Just yes. So much fun. Impossible to put down. Everything I wanted this book to be. If you need something like Ella Enchanted in your life, this is it.

This was the first fantasy book and first fantasy series that I read when I was still in elementary school. This book single handedly turned me into a book lover and eventually an English major. I never tire of reading these books and will read them to my kids one day!

Cute. Strange as an audio book, because they do it radio-play-style, with different actors for the different characters.
It makes me wish I had more time to read actual for-grown-ups dragon-y books, but it is a lovely respite from KQED's spring fund drive.
