I was there the day the Sheltering Stone fell. The day an ancient curse was unleashed and the Ninth Isle, the final refuge of dragons, was swallowed up by the angry ocean. For centuries my people, the winged dragonkind, have protected the dragons, bonding with them and sharing the skies together. Now both races face extinction. I made it happen. I meddled with the magic that doomed my home island. And now that magic consumes me. But it isn't too late. If I can learn to control the power that has invaded me I might survive long enough to find the lost mountain legend says can restore the legacy of my people. But greedy pirates and cruel Gold Ship Voyagers bar my way. And my only ally on this desperate quest is a beast some call the mad dragon-an eater of men. Can I bend both the dragon and my newfound powers to my will before time runs out? Or will the last hope of dragons, the legacy of a fierce race, die with me?
The Seventh Most Important Thing by Shelley Pearsall Pdf

AN ALA NOTABLE BOOK AN ILA TEACHERS CHOICE A KIRKUS REVIEWS BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR Arthur T. Owens grabbed a brick and hurled it at the trash picker. Arthur had his reasons, and the brick hit the Junk Man in the arm, not the head. But none of that matters to the judge—he is ready to send Arthur to juvie forever. Amazingly, it’s the Junk Man himself who offers an alternative: 120 hours of community service . . . working for him. Arthur is given a rickety shopping cart and a list of the Seven Most Important Things: glass bottles, foil, cardboard, pieces of wood, lightbulbs, coffee cans, and mirrors. He can’t believe it—is he really supposed to rummage through people’s trash? But it isn’t long before Arthur realizes there’s more to the Junk Man than meets the eye, and the “trash” he’s collecting is being transformed into something more precious than anyone could imagine. . . . Inspired by the work of folk artist James Hampton, Shelley Pearsall has crafted an affecting and redemptive novel about discovering what shines within us all, even when life seems full of darkness. “A moving exploration of how there is often so much more than meets the eye.” —Booklist, starred review “There are so many things to love about this book. Remarkable.” —The Christian Science Monitor

I lost everything when the Ninth Isle sank. My home, my family and the only life I ever knew. For generations my people, the dragonkind, proudly shared our island with dragons, defending the fierce beasts and soaring the skies alongside them. Now catastrophe has struck. Corthium lies beneath the sea, the mighty dragons are nearly extinct and, overnight, I have become the last of my race. But a glimmer of hope remains. There is still a chance I can restore the legacy of the dragonkind and return dragons to the world again. My mission is a dangerous one. With the help of my newly bonded dragon and my unpredictable companion, Basil, I must outwit scheming pirates and brave stormy seas in search of a new Sheltering Stone. Haunted islands, an elusive maker of magical maps, and a ruthless fleet of Gold Ship Voyagers lie ahead. Worse, the cunning pirate, Captain Ulysses, is determined to cripple my magic powers and steal them for a dark purpose. With time running out and the forces of my enemies assembled against me, only one thing is certain. My epic quest has begun.
It's been a long time since that evil day when I stole the magic of the Sheltering Stone, inadvertently setting off a chain of events that caused the destruction of my home island. But I still relive the terrible memories. I still dream of a day when I can finally thwart my enemies and restore what was lost. And now I have two formidable allies to aid me in my quest: my bonded dragon Skybreaker and a magical new weapon with powers I've only begun to discover. But with Gold Ship Voyagers, bloodthirsty pirates, and a fierce griffin barring my way, will I ever make it to the mountain of magic stones to complete the final part of my quest?
