Dragonology: The Complete Book of Dragons (Ology Series)

Product Information

I dunno why, this book was so captivating to me for some reasons unknown. I think the whole concept of the fact that dragons exist may have gotten me hooked on this book. I got it at a garage sale for a steal. My friend asked me why I was reading such a weird book, you see, I usually read different books than this one. But I'm so glad that I bought it. It has such amazing featues to the book. Dragon dust, dragons scales, dragon feathers. LOL. Made me laugh at random times. There were also riddles and envelopes. They told you about people who have encountered dragons orstudy them. SIGH, I couldn't get enough of the book. Dragons are an extremely rare genus of reptiles, who are of course studied by dragonologists. Some of them have wings, and all have between four legs to none. Many dragons are said to breath fire, which is false, as they use toxins in their mouths to create fire, poison, or in the case of the Frost Dragon, a blast of ice! As far as body coverings go, all of them have scales somewhere, though some do have skin, and even feathers. Obscure Spells and Charms of Dragon Origin - each kit contains: a decoder for the Dragonish language, Wyvern Dragon Dust from 1873, The Talisman of Master Merlin and a spell booklet. What single gift once engrossed my three boys so much that they stopped opening Christmas presents — I swear — for a full 15 minutes? A gorgeous compendium called DR. ERNEST DRAKE'S DRAGONOLOGY: THE COMPLETE BOOK OF DRAGONS. If it is listed as "sp" the genus is known, but the species isn't, "ssp" indicates a subspecies, and "*" means the dragon is extinct.

Dragonology: The Complete Book of Dragons is a book on the science of 'Dragonology'. It was first published in 2003, and was re-published in 2006. It is written in a 19th Century style. This is because it is supposedly based on a rare book published in 1896. This book's front cover is red with European Dragon flying over a village inside a circle that is surrounded by another European Dragon. The supposed author of this book is "Dr. Ernest Drake".We do not know if he actually existed or not. He is supposed to be part of the "Secret and Ancient Society of Dragonologists" ( S.A.S.D.). It is an interactive folio book with lift up flaps and textures, and a variety of illustrators, mostly large colour illustrations by Helen Ward. As this is the first installment in the series, and new dragons are added in every book, the title 'complete book of dragons' is a bit of a nisnomer. But if you're willing to let go of the resentment at that, or if you just read it for the fun of it, it's great. An interesting, interactive book that young children would adore.

Success!

Do you believe in dragons? Now, for the first time, the long-lost research of renowned nineteenth century dragonologist Dr. Ernest Drake is presented in all its eccentric glory, happily bridging the gap between dragon legend and fact. The meticulous Dr. Drake assigns Latin names to various dragon species, ruminates on why dragons are able to speak, speculates on how they could fly, and explains the true purpose of their notorious hoarding habits. Here are just a few of DRAGONOLOGY'S fascinating features:

The Simurgh (Titanochiroptera trigintavis) is a large megachiropteran bat indigenous to the temperate mountain forests of the Mid-East. Weighing up to 150 lb with a wingspan of 33–36 feet, it is the largest bat in the world. Despite their superficial resemblance, the Draconimorpha are not particularly closely related to any other clade of modern reptiles. They are in fact, members of the Parareptilia, a subclass of Reptilia which also includes the now extinct Pareiasaurs among others, and are quite distinct from the more familiar Eureptilia, which includes the lepidosaurs (tuataras, lizards & snakes), archosaurs (crocodiles & birds) and the testudines (turtles and tortoises). The surviving members of draconimorpha can be classified into 5 distinct clades: Thalattophidia (sea serpents), Ophiosuchoidea (wyrms), Volanosauria (wyverns), Therosuchia (Drakes) and Draconia (dragons).
