Dragon Moon

I am reading the book Dragon Moon by Carole Wilkinson. This is her third book in the series.

I think that Hei Lei will get so mad that he will hurt Kai. I think this because Hei Lei hates humans and Kai loves them. Hei Lei is the larger, meaner dragon. Kai is a goat sized dragon. My prediction was wrong. Kai challenged Hei Lei to a fight because Hei Lei said that Danzi, Kai’s father, was weak when Kai and Hei Lei were arguing.

At the end of this chapter I had a question. Why are the dragons not going to bring the empire rain? The empire is on the south side of the Great Wall of China where there are many colonies of people. The people need rain so their crops can grow. The empire is under a drought and many people will die without food in the winter. The reason that the dragons will not bring rain is they are afraid that they will be found by people. If the dragons are found by the people, they will be massacred for their organs which are worth a lot of money.

I also had another question which was, why did the dragon hunters leave all the dragon bones? The hunters killed many dragons in the Old Secret Place, where the dragons lived. There were too many bones for them to carry. They would usually bring all the bones and sell them to people. People believe dragon bones will bring them good luck with their crops. Because they killed so many dragons in the Old Secret Place, they only could carry the meat and organs.
