Ruth Stiles Gannett's classic fantasy adventure—following young Elmer Elevator's journey to Wild Island to rescue a baby dragon—is one of the most inventively plotted, most gently humorous, and most completely satisfying children's adventure novels ever written. Written with the precision and the wit that have made it a permanent fixture in the children's literary canon for over seventy years, this is essential reading for every child ready for genuine adventure fiction that trusts its young readers completely. An enduring classic.
