About the Author
WHILE L.R. HAS NEVER actually met a dragon, she would argue that a child who has not gotten enough sleep can become a dragon in mere minutes of being shaken awake and told it is time to rise and shine and get ready for school. And, to be honest, she can become a bit like a dragon when she has not had adequate sleep as well. So, of course, she understands and empathizes with her little dragons completely.
L.R. is the queen of her castle in San Antonio, TX. She lives with her king and her six princes in a home that can often resemble a dragon lair—not only for the fire-breathing dragons who must be woken at 6 a.m. instead of the preferred 10 a.m. but also for the cave-like quality it has about it when all the dragons are sleeping—when a shaking, rumbling house becomes suddenly, eerily silent.

A Note From L.R.
I HOPE YOU’VE ENJOYED reading this book from the annals of Fairendale’s history. The world of Fairendale has been a lovely world to create, and I’ve had fun sketching maps, re-reading fairy tales and thinking, endlessly, about characters and their plights—because a series like this one takes lots and lots of time and hard work. But because it’s always been my dream to create a fantasy world and share it with my readers, I knew it was something I had to do. (So, you see, dreams really do come true.)
If you have any questions about Fairendale or simply want to send me a note to tell me who your favorite character is or what kinds of extras you’d like to see me release in the future (a Creatures of the Violet Sea is coming soon!), email me at lr@lrpatton.com. I always enjoy hearing from my young readers.
Please consider leaving (or ask your parent to leave) a review of this book wherever you bought it. Reviews help get books into the hands of potential new readers, which is incredibly important for authors like me. And don’t forget to pick up your free bonus materials when you stop by my web site!

Thank you so much for supporting my work.
In love,
L.R.
