The perfect adventure story for children who love flying and dragons. The plot follows a set of twins who find a dragon egg and raise it. The story has elements of flight history and would be a great provocation for an inquiry about flight. It is an easy to read story for younger children. It would make a lovely book club read for 7-9 year olds.
Thank you to the author, publisher and Netgalley for this arc in exchange for an honest review.

Dragonracers is a small chapter book published by Barrington Stoke. Barrington Stoke primarily caters for those with dyslexia and their books are shorter, printed on cream paper and often feature illustrations on their pages.
Dragonracers is set in the era where flight is only just beginning to develop. Kitty is obsessed with learning to fly whereas her brother is obsessed with dragons. One day, the siblings find a dragon egg and hatch it. Kitty then has an idea that she will ride on the dragon to compete in a long distance air race - where there are only two men competing against each other.
The book is fast paced and is well researched as the two competitors were actual real people it is a tale of love, friendship and family with a lot of adventure thrown in.
Perfect for those aged 7+
