Perfect for fans of Unicorn Princesses, this sparkly, commercial new chapter book series stars a group of adorable dragons each with their own special gemstone magic. In an enchanted world full of magical creatures, a group of Gemstone Dragons live in Sparkle Cave deep inside Mineral Mountain. Each dragon has a unique magical power that comes from their gemstone, and while the powers are fun, sometimes they get the dragons into trouble. But there' s no problem the Gemstone Dragons can' t overcome by working together. Ruby has a HUGE imagination. Sometimes her imagination causes her to worry about things that could go wrong. The more she worries, the harder it gets to control her fire power. But Ruby wants to do cool tricks like the other dragons! When an attempt at showing off turns into a minor forest fire, a young unicorn runs away in fear and is lost. Can Ruby master her worries, control her power, and find Canterlope? Join this adorable group of dragons on an action-packed adventure filled with magic, friendship, and teamwork!

#01: Opal's Time to Shine
#02: Ruby's Fiery Mishap

"The writing is fluid and straightforward, as is the villain-free plot, allowing readers to focus on (and relate to, for many) Ruby' s anxious internal dilemmas. Although she has her day-saving breakthrough, it' s not a magic fix; Ruby still must consciously work on her positive focus in the happy denouement. . . . A solid sequel and a hug for overthinkers. " --Kirkus Reviews"I want to live in this dazzling world where dragons fly over crystal fields, mountains hold untold magic, and friendship shines brightly even in the face of danger. A sparkling jewel of a story!" --Kamilla Benko, bestselling author of The Unicorn Quest series"Sparkly and kind, this early chapter book shines as bright as the titular dragons' gemstones. . . A gentle story about how each of us has something special to give, no matter how big or small. Young dragon-lovers will devour this sweet, happy treat and look eagerly for future installments!" --Joy Preble, Children' s Programming Director, Brazos Bookstore
