    About this ebook

    Scrappy Claudette sets out once again with her pal Marie and her little brother Gaston to right wrongs and fight evil. And this time, it's personal. Claudette is out to get the dragon who ate her father's legs...and his legendary sword. But as usual, nothing is as simple as it seems, and Claudette is going to need Marie and Gaston's help more than ever.

    Funny, fast, high-energy storytelling in an inventive and perilous fantasy landscape makes Dragons Beware! a fantastic follow-up to 2012's middle-grade hit Giants Beware!

      Well-done. Worth reading.
    • 5/5
      This is the second book in the Chronicles of Claudette series. Once again Claudette is determined to take up her wooden sword and square off a new evil monster. This time she is determined to get her father’s sword back from the dragon that ate it.This graphic novel is drawn in a very cartoony style and done in bright colors; it’s well done and matches the tone of the story perfectly.There is a lot of humor in here and I enjoyed that a lot. This book showcases Gaston and his cooking/mixing abilities and it was nice to see Gaston get some of the spotlight. The story is easy to follow and fun to read; I loved it and would definitely recommend to both kids and adults alike.Overall another wonderful book in this series. I love the illustration, the characters, the story, and the action. This is one of those graphic novels that I think kids and adults will both enjoy. My nine year old son loves this series and so do I. I look forward to reading future books in this series!

      Best book ever because it talks alot about poop and pee. :)
    • 4/5
      Hilarious adventures of the feisty Claudette (warrior), her tiny brother Gaston (chef/wizard?), scrappy dog Valiant and best friend Marie (princess and diplomat).

      Something about it (probably the art) reminds me strongly of Asterix, but an Asterix for the modern age, without the racial caricatures -- I would completely believe that this is meant to be set in random medieval village in France.

      Funny, lighthearted, completely fantastical, dragon-centered romp.

      ARC provided by NetGalleyReview not final until hardcopy reviewed Claudette is back for more adventuring and fighting evil again. And this time it’s personal! Claudette is out to get the monstrous dragon who ate his legendary sword...and his legs too! Her dad needs his sword back to stop the evil sorcerer from coming back to the town and creating more havoc than even Claudette can handle. And although he doesn’t want her to come along, she follows anyway and brings along Marie and Gaston to help once more. There’s no telling what trouble will be caused when these three are on the loose or what tables are overturned.The first volume, Giants Beware!, broke all kinds of rules and boundaries--a young girl that was a warrior like her dad, a brother that was an excellent baker, and the daughter of the nobles that cared not a wit for princes, but cherished making intelligent decisions. And in this second book, they continue the trend of having a dragon that isn’t as evil as people think, a sword that isn’t what anyone thinks!, and a wizard that will blow your mind with who and what he is. Its a great bit of writing and I enjoy watching the characters interact with each other and the world around them. They come to find out not only more about themselves, but their past as well, and how they’re going to let it influence them. We also got to find out some of the secrets that the town holds and I can’t wait to see the series continue. I really like the artwork in this book, especially in the opening sequence. It’s a bit different than the rest of the book as it uses more muted colors and shadows, but it’s really well done. The rest of the book is done in brighter colors, still very well drawn, and perfect for a young reader. In fact the style reminds me a lot of Jeff Smith’s Bone, especially in the way the background and older characters are depicted. They have a lot more detail to them, more age lines on their faces, while the three main characters are almost less defined. It’s as if the artist is giving readers a chance to put themselves in the main characters places, making it easier for the reader to identify with them. My absolute favorite character designs are Zubair and Claudette’s father, Augustine. I love the way they move while on their journey and the grizzle looks on their faces. I’d highly recommend this book to any elementary school/middle school reader, especially young girls that are looking for a story where the girl isn’t a princess. I give the book 4 out of 5 stars.
