This book introduces Brodie, and how he was adopted from the streets of Burma, to the reader. It will educate the reader geographically--where Burma is located in the world, what one can see and learn in Burma. It also deals with disability after an accident Brodie had that left him with one leg longer than the other but does not stop him from doing anything he wants. And of course, it gets the reader ready to be taken on his next travel adventure. Highlights are on travel, the world, adoption, disabilities, and education. "The authors entertaining foray into the genre of fantasy may garner some fans as he tells the story of a talking dragon, an unconventional princess, a mysterious stable boy, and an evil gnome. What follows is an engaging tale of magic, heroism, and war that leaves itself open to a sequel. Decker's novel blends typical fantasy adventure with just the right amount of humor to make his book appeal to a broad audience." -The US Review of Books
