Discover the magical world of the dragons of legend with this field guide—created as if a dracologist painted these illustrations and made these notes while out collecting research.

Pick up the journal of a fantastical explorer and discover the best dragons across the universe. Encounter dragons of all shapes and sizes and note observations on each species’ appearance, diet, hunting strategies, and more. Most importantly, learn how to avoid becoming a dragon’s next meal! This spectacular visual guide gets you up close and personal with these awesome creatures. 

This field guide features:

  • Detailed watercolor illustrations that will captivate young readers
  • Marine dragons, ice dragons, arboreal dragons, burrowing dragons, volcanic lava swimmers, aerial dragons, desert dragons, and more 
  • Dragon anatomy, including how the fire-generation organ system works, types of scales, feathers, quills, armor plating, horns, claws, teeth, and more 
  • Cool features and capabilities: did you know that some dragons possess sound-dampening wings? Or that others can mimic colors and patterns to better ambush prey?
  • Beautiful leather and foil packaging  

This informative book will introduce you to the creatures that have famously featured in tales around the world—from the Knights of the Round Table to the ancient Greek gods—and the wild and mysterious beasts you never knew existed.
