| | Amazon.com: Here There Be Dragons: Books: Jane Yolen,David Wilgus |
 | | Yolen is one of my favorite authors, and I find it hard not to gush while describing her work. | | | Jane Yolen produces more great poetry and fiction in "Here There Be Dragons," part of her short story series focusing on ghosts, angels, witches, dragons, and so forth. | | | Yolen introduces each selection, supplying its genesis and adding invitingly personal anecdotes (e.g., her son had a tattoo made from an illustration for the poem "The Making of Dragons"). |
