Newbery Honor winner Levine ("Ella Enchanted") presents a fabulous and funny fantasy about a shape-shifting ogre, a dragon detective, and a girl who dreams of becoming an actress.
Twelve-year-old Elodie journeys to Two Castles in hopes of studying acting but instead becomes apprentice to a dragon, who teaches her to be observant and use reasoning, thus helping her to uncover who is poisoning the king.
