Turn Off Your TV Day: Travel to the Valley of the Dragons
February 14 marks the annual "Turn off Your TV Day" sponsored by Morality in Media to protest the violence, sex, and vulgarity of many television programs. Fill the gap left by the blank television with a quality book like The Valley of the Dragons: Dragon's Fire & Wizard's Flame. This story of a fireless dragon discovering his unique gifts appeals to adults and youth alike, and reading it will foster imagination and spark moral awareness seldom found in today's television programming.
Zac is a dragon on a mission. Fireless since birth, he has endured insults and isolation from the other dragons in his village, and the shame of his parents. After a lifetime of being shunned as a freak, Zac has had enough. He is leaving the only home he has ever known, the remote and secluded Valley of the Dragons, for the vast, unknown world that lies beyond the mountains. He has vowed not to return until he has claimed the fire he has wanted all his life. Little does Zac know that he possesses something far more valuable than fire, something that will pit wizards and a motley assortment of creatures against the dark power of an evil exile out to steal Zac's hidden gifts for himself. Which faction will prevail?

"A young dragon who can't breathe fire? How humiliating! But Zac soon discovers he can make friends, and his hidden talents include magic… How cool is that? Expect great action, a heart-warming story filled with wonderful characters, an evil monkey…and the enchanted forest of your favorite dreams. A treat for readers of all ages."
–Vijaya Schartz, award-winning novelist and Authors' Secrets Radio talk show host
"As children, we have this fascination with dragons. As adults, we have the same fascination but lack the courage to be young again. In Dragon's Fire and Wizard's Flame, youth, adventure and the lure of the dragon pull you in and keep you reading. We are young again, and it's wonderful."
–Debbie Neckel, BookCrazy Reviews
