\n{Synopsis} \u2013 <\/strong>Nory Horace can turn herself into a kitten. But sometimes she adds in a bit of dragon and, well, accidentally turns into a dritten. Oops? Her friend Andres Padillo can fly high . . . but then he can\u2019t fly back down again.<\/p>\n

Nory and Andres are in an Upside-Down Magic class with other kids who have unusual magic. Now they\u2019re off on their first-ever overnight field trip! At Dragon Haven, Nory, Andres, and their UDM classmates get to swim with dragons, fly with dragons, and feed dragons. There\u2019s even a Hatchery, where they might get to see a newborn dragon.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s only one downer. The UDM kids aren\u2019t the only ones visiting Dragon Haven. There are other students there, too. Students from another school. Students with \u201cnormal\u201d magic. Dragon rescue, bonfires, and pajama breakfasts won\u2019t be nearly as fun with a bunch of snooty strangers.<\/p>\n

Unless . . . maybe everything isn\u2019t as bad as it first seems. Thrown together with kids who are probably enemies, but might be friends, the UDM kids dive into their topsy-turviest adventure yet.<\/p>\n

{My thoughts} \u2013 <\/strong> Nory and her class from Dunwiddle Magic School get to go on a trip to the Dragon Haven. She and her classmates are extremely excited about this trip because they get to go overnight and see and interact with real dragons. This is a really really big deal for her class. Only one of her classmates isn’t able to go because her magic might cause more harm then good. <\/p>\n

When Nory and her classmates get there they learn that they are one of two student groups that are going to be attending this retreat. Nory gets a bit anxious because she’s afraid the other group of students won’t like her and her class because their magic isn’t cookie cutter. Nory ends up going for a walk with her friend Elliot and they see a Kittenball game going on. She ends up joining the game and learns that one of the other girls is a kitten that can breathe fire. She quickly learns that girl has two talents and that she can’t always control it, like Nory and her classmates. <\/p>\n

When they go back for lunch Nory learns that the other group of students there is from Sage Academy. That is the school where her father is the headmaster. She ends up being thrust at her father by her new friend and they have an awkward conversation, but he does admit that she’s his daughter at least. The rest of the book is her working out her differences with her magic and her father for the most part. <\/p>\n

It also revolves around Andre’s story and how he finally starts to better understand his magic. This is a huge thing, because up until that point he had no control over how high he’d float up in the air, because he had no idea how to get back down! <\/p>\n

If you’d like to learn more about both of these situations, I highly recommend reading the book. It was fantastic and a wonderful addition to the series! <\/p>\n

Final Conclusion:<\/strong> 5 Star Rating. <\/p>\n
