About this deal

The Daily Telegraph described the book as “short, sharp and funny” and We Love This Book said it is full of “belly-busting laughter for all the family. Fred comes from an exceptionally gifted magical family, but unfortunately his own wizarding skills are rather underwhelming. This is sophisticated storytelling in a really accessible format, no wonder the series has now reached number ten.

Books For Keeps said: “This is a witty and perfectly formed little book that deserves to be read and reread: it packs an extraordinary amount of fun and adventure into its 64 pages and will be enjoyed by readers of all ages. Edward has gone with his Uncle to Mongolia to see the mythical Great Dragon Battle Ceremony and meet Professor Baast. As a short story, you can read it all in one go, which you’ll want to do, as like me, you’ll wish to know what happens at the end!The Dragon sitter in the Land of Dragons is one of the thrilling book from series of the Dragon sitter books. He has also illustrated the popular fiction series The Dragonsitter by Josh Lacey and the space adventure series George’s Secret Key to the Universe by Lucy and Stephen Hawking for slightly older readers.

He is a talented new illustrator, whose work has captured the imaginations of children all over the UK.My favourite character was Eddie because he is adventurous and I liked the world of dragons he was in. I would have liked to have known more about the Dragons before, but then I've not read any others in the series.

Booktrust wrote, in a review of The Dragonsitter, "From catastrophe to worse, this is the madcap and giggle-inducing story of how to tackle a pet with a difference, with energetic drawings to match", [4] and The Daily Telegraph described it as "short, sharp and funny. But wild dragons are not nearly so friendly as pet ones, and the inhospitable mountains are a dangerous place to be stuck with nothing but a pile of chocolate bars. This book was easy and quick to read and probably suited to someone younger than 9 but I still really enjoyed reading it! I also like that this one little boy named Edward Smith-Pickle goes all the way from Scotland to Mongolia but he’s still the jolly boy he always is, even when he is standing there in front of three blood thirsty dragons.

The emergency chocolate packed in their biggest rucksack comes in handy during their trip but Edward wishes he had more.

Garry Parsons has illustrated several books for children and is the author and illustrator of Krong! The illustrations by Garry Parsons made the book better because it helped me understand the story as I was reading it and they were very good visually. They went into a cave and found bones and they didn’t know what they were until his uncle got knocked out with a dragon’s tail and he woke up with a really bad headache. I think that Josh Lacey is now probably my second favourite author (first is obviously David Walliams). Eddie has travelled with his uncle Morton to Mongolia, in hope of being one of the few to watch the Great Dragon Battle.Uncle Morton has persuaded his nephew to accompany him to Mongolia to witness the legendary Great Dragon Battle Ceremony. But soon the fridge is empty, the curtains are blazing, and the mailman is fleeing down the front path.
