good but......

there was no fighting or anything

**SPOILER**
the only enemy is S.N.A.P.P.A and even they aren't that bad they only accused spike (I think that was his name) of murdering Pelly and then she was fine . over all not that scary. I like tu ti Sutherlands books but this one is ok deffinetly not a adult book

Dragon on Trial

Scratch, the dragon, is in trouble. He’s on trial for eating the Golden Goose. And while he’s quite happy she’s gone, he swears he didn’t do it. But all the signs point to him. Zoe doesn’t believe that Scratch would (or could) hurt the goose, so she rounds up Logan and Blue to prove he’s innocent.

Dragon on Trial was a delight. While I wish more of the clues had given me a chance to guess what happened before the kids did, I really enjoyed discovering right along with them. It’s quite a twisty journey, and they get to make a new and unexpected friend along the way.

Logan is starting to find his place in his small group of friends. And seeing him discover that feeling of belonging that he had been missing was more than just a little cool. Although I have no idea how they all manage to do “ALL THE THINGS” in the time span in the book. Time flies so fast and things just keep zipping right along.

Awesomeeee, as always.

I loved it, it was exciting and Scratch is so awesomeee. Not gonna lie I gotta agree with Pellie that she deserved a little more improvement in her life. After all, she is 1 in about 100,000 geese. Plot twist at the end!
Never suspected them!
Anyway, I need to write a letter to Johnathan Sterling.


BEER Johnathan,
I hate you. I’m being blunt, but Ruby will break up with you soon, I can tell. Don’t go crying when she does, and you are a traitor, and a liar. 😡😡😡😈😈😈☠️☠️☠️💀💀💀 No no I’m kidding but Johnathan is a jerk. I don’t hope he gets hurt or dies or anything like that, just please Johnathan don’t betray your girlfriend.

Sincerely, Charlotte, age 9
