Il drago di ghiaccio (edizione illustrata)
Il drago di ghiaccio (edizione illustrata) | George R.R. Martin
Adara non ricordava quando aveva visto per la prima volta il drago di ghiaccio, sembrava avesse sempre fatto parte della sua vita. A quattro anni lo aveva visto da vicino, a cinque era salita per la prima volta sul suo possente dorso gelato. Era una bambina dell'inverno, nata durante la peggiore gelata che chiunque potesse ricordare e del drago non aveva paura. In una quieta mattina estiva, i draghi che sputano fuoco, montati da cavalieri senza scrupoli, scendono in picchiata sulla fattoria dove Adara vive, dando sfogo alla loro furia sterminatrice. Solo una bambina dell'inverno, aiutata da un drago di ghiaccio, pu salvare il mondo dalla distruzione. Il drago di ghiaccio la guard per dieci lunghi battiti del cuore, prima di ripartire. L'aria scricchiol attorno a lei e attraverso di lei quando batt le ali per librarsi in volo, ma Adara prov una strana felicit.

1. The tree stays up until late February/early March (the beginning of the year's too gloomy without twinkly lights!) Anything else Christmasy comes down by the first week of January, but I leave snowmen/wintry decorations up.

2. Hmm, I love both, but I'd have to pick snow! ❄☃️

Consider yourself tagged if you'd like to play along!

This ones is more of a children's tale set in the same universe as Game of Thrones, but it doesn't have the same characters and I think it's a different time period.

It's wonderfully written, the illustrations are beautiful and perfect for capturing the overall feel of it.

I'm still reading The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue and I'm not thrilled with it. I miss action. Maybe I had expected too much because everyone talk about it and recommend it.
Will try to read #slovenianedition of The Ice Dragon before I go to bed. And tomorrow countinue with Addie.

A perfect winter read! In my opinion also a good way to find a way into Martins writing, because you can get a glimspe of his style and his world building, without having to many pages ahead 😉

And the illustrations are amazing!

This F chapter book, written by George R. R. Martin, famous for A Song of Fire (GoT), and illustrated by Yvonne Gilbert. In a world where war is threating young Adara's country and family, this is not the only threat. Adara is different from most, described to be a girl of winter, she finds herself taming the beast that has taken many lives, the Ice Dragon. This is the story of Adara, and the Ice Dragon saved her world. #ucflae3414f19

Lrobertson This book would be best for IR or LC. Also, activities from https://www.teachingbooks.net/tb.cgi?tid=9619. For LC, using EL Strategy 10: Teach think, pair and share strategies in cooperative groups and strategy 38: assign short readings for homework. Along with UDL 6.1: guide appropriate goal-setting, so students are not getting overwhelmed when reading this book. 5y
Tinks I will definitely look into reading this... I love reading about dragons and the like. 5y
DrSpalding Dolores‘ Searcher circle book had dragons. You obviously picked her interest. Good choice 5y

BEAUTIFUL little tale with superbe illustrations, for both youngsters and adults, about the war and the destruction and changes that it brings.
Still, typically GRRM, I'm not sure if the ending was happy or sad.

A short story about a young girl who was born in the coldest winter & bonds with an ice dragon each winter. A sweet, slightly melancholy read but beautiful all the same. The illustrations are wonderfully done. I read this in an hour and will be passing it along to another GoT fan in the future! #13inthree #readathon #thebookkeepers #bookreview

Survey answers from the website:
I'm reading in Austin TX, this is my first 24in48, and I was most looking forward to this book, because I didn't know Martin wrote YA, and the illustrator is L Royo! I heard about the last 24in48 on FB. I'll be on Litsy all weekend. And something about myself? I love pets and dancing, and of course reading!!!
PS, Litsy sure is slow! Lots of use I suppose!

As usual, not a very good book. Fabulous illustrations though. The main character has a complete change of heart for no rhyme or reason and the book ends on a happy if extremely vague note. Enjoy the pictures, cause the plot/characters are not enjoyable. 1.5/5 stars
