Wings of Fire Book Club 15

Kids are crazy for this New York Times bestselling series, Wing of Fire. During our meetings we'll explore themes of free will verse fate, expectations (both of oneself and that others have for one), responsibility, and much more. We'll also look at storytelling elements such as plot, character, and POV; great for confident readers to try on their own or to read with a parent.

We'll spend a little time talking about the book, and then play our role-playing game that reinforces social and leadership skills, problem-solving skills, creative thinking skills, and even get some practice with math.

Choose the chapter book or graphic novel.

About the book:

Luna has always wanted to change the world -- to fix it, to free it -- even if she's never actually known how. Now that all of dragon - and humankind are in mortal danger, Luna is flying back home to Pantala with a team of dragons on a rescue mission, determined to be brave and useful.

But saving a continent isn't as easy as a prophecy makes it sound, and "facing a great evil" definitely requires more than the fiery silk that Luna is uniquely able to create. As she fights her way to the abyss that hides the dark roots poisoning Pantala, Luna must uncover a long-buried secret and unite her friends, her enemies, and her own powers. If she doesn't, she won't get to change the world. She'll have to say goodbye to it -- forever.
