Introduction Dragon Masters is a wildly popular children’s chapter book series written by Tracey West and illustrated by Graham Howells . Published by Scholastic as part their Branches imprint, the series is specifically designed to bridge the gap between early readers (like Fly Guy ) and longer, more complex chapter books (like Harry Potter ). Since the release of the first book, Rise of the Earth Dragon (2014), the series has grown to over 25 volumes, becoming a cornerstone of early elementary reading lists.

Later books introduce rare "special edition" dragons like the Gold Dragon (time travel) and the Moon Dragon (dream manipulation).

For any young reader who dreams of hatching a dragon, Tracey West’s series offers a safe, exciting, and achievable world to explore—one short chapter at a time.

Each Dragon Master is bonded to a unique dragon that reflects their personality. The dragons have distinct elements and powers:

| Dragon | Master | Element | Signature Power | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Drake | Earth | Growing vines, creating rock walls | | Kepri | Ana | Sun | Healing, creating blinding light | | Vulcan | Rori | Fire | Breathing super-hot flames | | Shu | Bo | Water | Creating tidal waves, rain |
