About this book
A beguiling fantasy about the vacation of a lifetime. Hannah Zachary and Sarah Emily are spending the summer at their Great Aunt Mehitabels house on faraway Lonely Island. There in a cave hidden high above the ocean they discover a fabulous creature: a glittering three-headed golden dragon with a kind heart an unpredictable temper and a memory that spans 20 000 years. Transported by the magic of the dragons stories the children meet Mei-lan a young girl in ancient China; nineteenth-century cabin boy Jamie Pritchett; and in more recent times Hitty and her brother Will who survive a frightening plane crash on a desert island. In this fluidly written novel Rebecca Rupp explores what three children from the present learn from the past - and from an unlikely but wise and generous friend.
