The Flight of Dragons The Fourth Tale from the Five Kingdoms

How long does a dragon's egg take to hatch? Find out as this hilariously macabre series continues. In this deadly funny fourth Tale from the Five Kingdoms, it's Gracie Gillypot's birthday, and Prince Marcus plans to show her a flight of dragons as a special gift. But when greedy, chocolate-hungry twins awaken the banished Old Malignant One, evil magic and Total Oblivion threaten the Five Kingdoms. Gracie must find a powerful, long-forgotten dragon's egg before the Old Malignant One does in order to save the day. With the help of a wayward troll, two chatty bats, and the ancient crones, can Gracie foil his rotten plans? And can she overcome a spoiled princess, a malicious crow, and loads of chocolate cake to do so?
