A great adventure story for 6+. It's great to read to them but, as they get older, it's a fun story for them to read to themselves. It was an exciting read and full of adventure.
love it! But I wish Elenna's graphic was more beautiful. Oh well, I have a crush on Tom and the Dragon, Ferno haha
adventurous
emotional
fast-paced
I read this book to my cousin and I can say that he enjoyed it. I liked it too but in terms of story line it was very predictable. It's the kind of story where the main character goes off on a mission and comes back victorious. It isn't very realistic but my 6 year old cousin liked it and that was the main reason I was reading it after all. It is one of those books where small children can either read on their own or have it read to them over a few nights(the book is just over 100 pages and is part of a series).
All in all, I was able to smile at the childishness of the story line but also enjoy my cousins reaction to this type of book which is new to him, which was more that worth it!

My 8 year old sons love everything they have read so far from this author.
I read this out of curiosity about a series with so many titles. Like the volume I tried from Daisy Meadows' Rainbow Magic series, this was better than I expected. Recommended to young readers who aren't afraid to see a vast ocean of sequels spread before them.
Beast Quest: Ferno
I think this must be what reading books are talking about when they say books heavy on action and adventure for boys that don't waste time on description or super involved character background.
Beast Quest gets right down to it, and something is happening every moment. From the beginning where the knight dyes on the back of the dragon to Tom's village burning down to his constant struggle against the villains along the way. This is formulaic with shades of King Arthur, Robin Hood and every classic knight's tale. There's a token female character who served in a crucial supporting role, two mystical animals that respond to their master's every need often before they know they need it and a dragon that needs to be freed rather than killed.
This is recommended for middle to upper elementary readers in search of page turning action.

Well this was a little better than what I was thinking. The story is evidently for kids because there is anything complicated about it, everything happens in a few paragraphs. But then the background story was well thought I can see similarities with Eragon and Tom and Elenna are brave and cute duo.
I absolutely loved Tom's map! I'd give anything to have such thing! And Cinza and Trovão are very usefuland beautiful pets
I'm curious about Tom's age...
