What We're Reading: Dragons, Magic, and Elves

This past week we've been reading about a girl named Rhianna who goes to school and really wants to be always exact. In magic school it's always a "pinch of this" and "a pinch of that" but never exact.

One day she's trying to do a spell and it goes wild! A wizard (she becomes his apprentice) says she has a wild magic that hasn't happened in a thousand years! The wizard says she has to learn how to control it and she has to be EXACT. She's always wanted to be exact.

A dragon is drawn by the magic and he wants to have her wild power. So he fights her and the wizard! I like the ending because it talks and explains about how the dragon is still fierce yet looks beautiful and colorful.
