The Girl, the Dragon, and the English Journey Home The First Tale

The Girl, the Dragon, and the English Journey Home is an enchanting trilogy that weaves together the magic of folklore, the bonds of friendship, and an epic quest for belonging.

At the heart of this extraordinary tale is a young Crow Native American girl who discovers an unbreakable connection with a majestic dragon named Merlin. Their journey begins with an unexpected twist of fate that sets them on a path to uncover Merlin's ancestral roots in England's enchanting and mysterious lands.
