Product Description
From School Library Journal
Grade 3–5—Seven-year-old Adara was born during the coldest chill of the coldest year ever, a chill that killed her mother during the girl's birth. Ever since then, she has been a remote and chilly child, living for winter when the ice lizards come out and forming a bond with a mysterious ice dragon. When war comes and dragon-riding invaders threaten her home and family, the ice dragon helps her to thwart them, leading to its own demise. Filled with illustrations of swooping dragons and folks in medieval-type garb, this fantasy is a slim but rich introduction to the genre, one that should appeal to both boys and girls. Give it to readers who are not quite ready for Emily Rodda's "Deltora Quest" series (Scholastic) or to fantasy fans who want a quick but meaty read.—Eva Mitnick, Los Angeles Public Library

From AudioFile
Adara is a winter child. She was born during a great freeze and loves the ice and cold. Different from the other children and indifferent to her family, she is happy alone. All that matters is her growing friendship with the Ice Dragon, a creature everyone else fears. But in her seventh year, she must choose between the ice dragon and the family that loves her. Maggi Meg Reed's narration embodies the story-her voice is smooth and controlled, not quite emotionless, but imperial and reserved, and the effect is, in fact, chilling. Reading without individualized voices, she engages listeners in Adara's tale, and brings warmth to the satisfying conclusion.
