A book from my childhood that always fills me with the joy of coming home to old friends. Dragon Flight and the Dragonskin Slippers series is a delightful tale which holds a special place in my heart.

Ha. I actually AM currently reading this one.
Knitting baby blankets is consuming these days...it's much easier to knit and watch a movie than to knit and read. Trust me.

This book was as awesome as the first one! Adventure, Stubbornness, and Romance come together to make a great book. Besides it has DRAGONS and lots of DRAGONS! Need I say more! I'm going to find these and add them to my bookshelves!

Solid, engaging and witty follow-up to Dragon Slippers. I adore the main characters and am willing to forgive George for straining my credulity with a somewhat thin plot. The sheer joy that infuses this book makes it worth reading. I think this is a lovely series for middle-schoolers. And me.

Still a fun read, same easy reading as the first. I liked this one a little less than the first, but still loved it. I liked seeing the business through this, and hearing the descriptions of the embroidery. The politics, simplified for middle grade, were interesting and well done. This one overall just had fewer funny/sweet moments, which is why it got 4 stars and not 5 stars. Great edition though.

I'm pretty sure this book made no impact on me. I feel, after reading it, exactly how I would have felt after not reading it. It practically disappears in its own unremarkableness, until it becomes a total non-entity.
It's... fine.
This time Creel's adventures take place two countries over. Her friendship with the dragons is still the most charming part of the whole thing, but this time its impact seemed dimmer. The impact of the slightly too cute unrealistic plot and somewhat shallow characters was much louder. The two opposing forces collided like a quark and an anti-quark to produce nothingness.
Also, this author really has a talent for picking terrible city names.
