- Gnome and I both enjoyed this one. We didn't love it as much as My Father's Dragon, but it was still good.
- It was fun to get to know the dragon. He was a very endearing character.
- The canaries were fun.
- These are great stories! I'm glad we discovered them.

After finishing My Father's Dragon, I continued on to the second volume. The first book described the dragon's rescue, and now Elmer needs to return home. The grateful baby dragon offers to fly him home; a storm forces them ashore an island, where some shenanigans take place, but Elmer is able to make it home in time for his father's birthday.
It's hard to reflect on this one without mention of My Father's Dragon - there is a distinct story within these pages, but it picks up immediately where the first book ends, so that I find them a natural pairing (who wants to read about the end of a journey without also reading what brought them there in the first place?).

In the second book in the series, Elmer has rescued the baby dragon. The baby dragon promises to fly Elmer back to Nevergreen City, but they are blown off course to Canary Island in a storm. Elmer and the dragon help cure the canaries of their curiosity by unearthing a treasure chest left by settlers. The dragon drops Elmer off at home to reunite with his parents.
