Dear Uncle Morton
Are you sitting down If you're not, you probably should. Because I have some very bad news.
Someone has stolen one of your dragons.
Eddie's mum is getting remarried, to Uncle Morton's Scottish neighbour Gordon. But then Ziggy is stolen. It's not long before Arthur is taken too. Eddie must track the thief down, rescue Uncle Morton's dragons and get to the church on time. . .
"An accessible and fun read for readers growing in confidence and independence, whether new to the series or die-hard fans" * Carousel *
