  <default-description>It&#8217;s not easy for Danny Dragonbreath to be the sole mythical creature in a school for reptiles and amphibians&#8212;especially because he can&#8217;t breathe fire like other dragons (as the school bully loves to remind him). But having a unique family comes in handy sometimes, like when his sea-serpent cousin takes Danny and his best iguana friend on a mindboggling underwater tour, complete with vomiting sea cucumbers and giant squid. It sure beats reading the encyclopedia to research his ocean report . . . &lt;p&gt;Using a hybrid of comic-book panels and text, Ursula Vernon introduces an irresistible set of characters with a penchant for getting themselves into sticky situations. It&#8217;s perfect for both the classroom and the &lt;i&gt;Wimpy Kid&lt;/i&gt; set.</default-description>

While the majority of the book is written in text, every so often it will venture off into anywhere from a single page to several pages of graphic novel format which are interwoven right into the story.

    <body><![CDATA[This advance reading copy of &quot;Dragonbreath&quot; states that it is for ages 8-12, grades 3-7 -- presumably for boys. Well, that makes it  hard for me to judge it but I do not know of a single 12-yr-old boy who would enjoy this book. I tend to think it might be enjoyed more by 5-8 year-old boys ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/60722988">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I wasn't blown away by this.  It's getting lots of comparisons to Babymouse, which I can sort of see, but I really wish this were told entirely in comics instead of a few pages of comics and then a bunch of prose.  Vernon does some excellent sequential art storytelling (look up her webcomic epic Dig...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/68010132">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a highly illustrated chapter book. With words like &quot;recalcitrant&quot; and &quot;presumptuous&quot;, the language and humor skew waaaay higher than the fun, goofy pictures would suggest. This might be a good read-aloud for an elementary kid with a sophisticated sense of humor, or for a ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/67395631">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Dragonbreath is a fun story with wonderful artwork. I liked the mix of text and graphic novel format. Reading it to kids it gives enough artwork to help hold their attention but no so much that they tune the story out. The book is full of very likeable and bizarre characters that get into plenty of ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/60081451">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Ursula Vernon is a favorite, so I had this ordered on pre-order and knew I'd enjoy it.  But once it arrived, I was completely smitten by the snorklebats and vicious rogue potato salad.<br/><br/>A delightful story for kids and adults who are still kids at heart.  And it's even a wee-bit educational...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/59619126">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[What a cute book. It has a little of the Wimpy kid format, but with huge imaginations. I love Danny who can't breath fire and goes on this great adventure. Those who like Wimpy kid or the Phineas and Ferb series will enjoy this one. The parents are often too true to life.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[How can yo not sympathize with a Danny Dragonbreath. He's a dragon who can't breath fire! Of course all the bullies, and his father, gang up on him. Ursula Vernon drew me in with a wonderful plot and beautiful graphics. I can't wait to read the sequel. ]]></body>
