Guardian of the Gold Breathers by Elise Stephens

4.0

This was an interesting tale of a boy as he discovers his own strength. He also learns that magic is real. The development of the main character and his struggles were vivid enough for my ten year old daughter to completely stress out over some of his choices and cry at the resolution. Sometimes characters disappoint or tick you off. But they can only do that when you care for them.

I withheld the fifth star because I expected and wanted more of the magical elements in this story. With such a descriptive term as Gold Breather, I longed for more depth and development of the dragon as a character as well.
