The action continues from the first book, and the Wasp Empire is on the march, first to the Ant city of Tark and then to Collegium itself.
With his warnings still not being heeded, Stenwold Maker takes matters into his own hands.
My favourite character here is Felise Mienn, the eponymous dragnonfly. She is hunting down Wasp Thalric whom she believes killed her children. The conflict between them, and how the other characters become embroiled becomes one of the best themes of the series, especially with its conclusion and what that means for the series as a whole.

**✿❀ Maki ❀✿** (7 KP) rated First 100 Words in Books

At this point, my daughter is still too young to actually read. I've been using this book more to get her in the habit of handling books than I have as an actual learning tool.
The pages are sturdier than the other board books she's gotten, so she can actually flip from one page to another on her own, and the pages don't dissolve when she chews on them. Bonus points for that!
I can see that this book would work nicely as a baby dictionary, to teach children to associate words with pictures of everyday things - from colors, to clothes, to animals.

This is the book that concerned parent, grandparent or even healthcare professions should have available to them.
This book raises the topic of when children blame themselves for the problems of the parent. This story sees a little panda upset and thinking he is a bad boy to make his mummy so sad, but grandma carefully explains and supports him to understand that sometimes mummies need time to heal and simply be.
A book that both me and my 4-year-old daughter have enjoyed and has raised the difficult conversation with her over why mummy is sometimes sad. Thank you.

Apr 10, 2018
Didn't get the pet you wanted for Christmas and thinking of getting one and hiding it in the cupboard? In this story, a little girl "adopts" a dog, and doesn't tell her mother. Keeping it in the cupboard teaches her that not everything should be kept in there. When she finally admits to her mum about her pet a good chat teaches her about responsibility.
An enjoyable read, with illustrations that are simple and easily taken in, but may not be to everyone's appeal this book is a good way to bring up the subject of responsible pet ownership with younger children.
