Roderick's Perilous Journey: A Dragon Chapter Book for Kids About Courage, Friendship, and Russian Folklore (Wings of Wisdom)

In a land of fire and frost, a young dragon must learn what it truly means to be brave.

When Roderick, a curious young dragon from Wales, is uprooted to the wild and volcanic Kamchatka Peninsula, he expects snowstorms and loneliness—not destiny.

In the heart of the frozen forest, he meets Snegurka, a mysterious snow maiden brought to life by winter magic. But when her heart begins to love a humble woodsman, her icy body starts to melt away. To save his friend, Roderick must journey across Russia’s untamed wilderness—facing trickster spirits, shadowed lakes, living legends, and rivers of fire—in search of a truth powerful enough to transform her fate.

Blending the timeless storytelling of Charlotte’s Web, the spiritual depth of The Horse and His Boy, and the mythic wonder of A Wizard of Earthsea, this classic-style fantasy celebrates courage, loyalty, perseverance, and the quiet strength it takes to choose truth over fear.

Perfect for:

• Dragon lovers

• Folklore-inspired children’s fantasy readers

• Bedtime read-aloud families

• Ages 7–12 (and the young at heart)
