Krakatau Dragon - Kathleen V McLennan - Bog

When the island volcano of Krakatau explodes, Minkatau, Queen of the Krakatau Fire-Dragons is hurled from her fire-cave as far as the icy waters of the great frozen South land, where her Hatchling Prince, MoroToba is ready to be born. Knowing the cold must kill her, Minkatau hatches her egg in a cave and prepares her son to return to claim his Krakatau Kingdom. The youngster must journey alone through the wide, brown land to find the Chain of Islands that will direct him home. The curious hatchling has no map. He must create his own by observation as he experiences many adventures. He learns the ways of other creatures, including the puny but oh, so dangerous man-creatures. Through them, MoroToba meets Reniki, a sea-dragon who would lead him home if only she could escape from the Temple of Dragons. MoroToba is also a prisoner and determined to kill all the man-creatures. But MoroToba needs the one amongst them that knows all, if he is to find and claim his heritage. How can MoroToba escape and find his promised kingdom?
