The Dragon With The Chocolate Heart by Stephanie Burgis 9-11

VIEW IN EDSHED

Aventurine is the fiercest, bravest kind of dragon,

and she's ready to prove it to her family by leaving

the safety of their mountain cave and capturing

the most dangerous prey of all: a human.

But when the human she captures tricks her into

drinking enchanted hot chocolate, she finds

herself transformed into a puny human girl with

tiny blunt teeth, no fire, and not one single claw.

She's still the fiercest creature in these mountains

though - and now she's found her true passion:

chocolate! All she has to do is walk on two feet to

the human city, find herself an apprenticeship

(whatever that is) in a chocolate house (which

sounds delicious), and she'll be conquering new territory in no time . won't she?
