Publisher's summary

Carmen is 11 years old and wants to get her dragon. Since she was seven years old, she understood two things. One, she was going to be the strongest Dragon Keeper there ever was. The second was that she was going to marry her best friend, Mattie.

As Christmas approaches, the magical charms Carmen has to use to fight off her curse are taking a toll on her health. But that can’t stop her from taking her final test to become a Dragon Keeper. If she passes her test she gets her dragon, if not, she has to start all over, relying on different magical charms to fight the curse for her. That is something Carmen doesn’t want to have to go through. The testing is difficult and charms make her sick. Carmen has decided that if she doesn’t get her dragon this Christmas she’s not going to go for a third attempt, even if that means she can’t marry Mattie when she grows up.

Imaginative

"A Dragon For Christmas" (2017, 2021) by M.D. Neu is a imaginative, contemporary short story about Carmen, a gay, adolescent Latina who possesses special charms that enable her to attract a dragon. However, after one failed attempt years earlier, Carmen has not gotten her dragon. The story is far-fetched but it works. One shortcoming: The tale states dragons prevent their owners from succumbing to a potentially fatal curse, but there is no mention about the curse’s origin. Still, solidly recommended. Amanda Vargas’ narration is engaging. At my request, I was given this free audiobook and have voluntarily left this review.

Cute and magical short story

Disclaimer: I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. A very cute and short story, one that I enjoyed but would have liked a little more insight into the two characters. Probably because it was a short story, but it feels like the nature of their interaction is lost in the book, especially later on in the book which was sad, I would have liked to experience their chemistry together, I think that would be lovely. But it's still a cute story and one that has a very magical, christmas mood. Narration by Amanda Vargas is amazing, I was sold the moment I heard the first lines. She brought forth everything so well, the emotions matching that of the characters and really bringing the characters to life.

Simply Magical! Beautiful Performance by A. Vargas

I'm completely enchanted! What a spectacular world M.D. Neu has created in A Dragon For Christmas. I have no idea if this is a standalone or part of a huge, wonderful series, but you can believe I'm going to find out!

Lyrical and magical and sweet, and romantic down to the very core, A Dragon For Christmas tells the story of a young girl digging deep, and giving everything, to make her dream come true. It's absolutely lovely.

Beautifully performed by Amanda Vargas, who skillfully brings every bit of M.D. Neu's magic to life.
