I am a teacher of middle school students and I purchased this book at the UCLA Book Festival. I brought it back to my classroom where five boys lined up to read it. I just received it back from the fifth student and it has been universal that they love this book. I had one student finish it in two days because he could not put it down. They especially liked that there is a dragon in the story. If you have a reluctant reader this might be a good book to get them involved.
An intriguing story of post-war France

4 / 5
_The Crouching Dragon_ by Len Lamensdorf has a tight yet descriptive prose style, a good sense for movement and pace, and an intriguing story line that compels the reader to follow William with interest.
The book has many of the hallmarks of a young adult book with staying power. The protagonist is confronted with a situation in which he must act independently of parents and other adult authority (and in many cases, in spite of them) he is involved in an alternate world (somewhat removed from any particular time-- keeps the story from becoming dated), and he experiences personal growth.
I look forward to reading _The Raging Dragon_ and _The Flying Dragon_.
Great for everyone!

This book is so good it's impossible to describe how good it is with words but I'll do my best. first of all it takes place a while back, that's what makes it unique. it has somthing for everybody who reads it. it has a mild love story. but if you don't like that it has some mystery on the edge of your seat things about it. it also has adventureous parts of the book. this book has many overwhelming things to it but I want to point one out to you, it isn't a fake book when pigs can fly and dogs can talk. no it's all realistic. well I would recomend this book to everybody in the world seeya
