Episode 25: Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher by Bruce Coville

If Howard Morton and Freddie the Frog Killer were trying to hold you down so that Mary Lou Hutton could kiss you, you might run as fast as Jeremy Thatcher did the day he stumbled into Mr. Elives' Magic Shop. And if you stumbled into that strange shop, you, too, might be asked to make a choice. What would you buy? The Chinese rings? The Skull of Truth? Or the dragon's egg? And if you did buy the dragon's egg, what would you do when you found out you were supposed to hatch it?

Another entry in the Magic Shoppe series, this one stars a young boy who is unwittingly tasked with the raising of a dragon! Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher, was far less exciting than the other Bruce Coville book we read, but it is NOT short on the feels.
