Reading Dragons & Friends
At Fraser Public Library
What is Reading Dragons?
Started at the Dover Public Library in Dover, Ohio, Reading Dragons is a collectable card game that rewards you for reading! Cards range from dragons to other mythical creatures, like unicorns and griffins. You can battle players with your cards, or collect them just for fun!
When you first sign up at the library, you will get a collector's card box, three starter cards of each element type, a rules card, a reading tracker and an egg checklist .
How do I earn dragons?
Dragons are mostly earned through reading books using the reading tracker, although some may be available by participation in library events and programming.
Each month, a reader can earn up to 4 mythical creatures, and evolve them to adult form. A card is earned by reading 30 minutes. A reader can then choose to earn a new creature or evolve a current creature from that month’s list of creatures.
Bring your tracker to the library desk, and a librarian will help you get your cards and mark the row after you collect your cards.
Reading dragons are only available to play with us from September until April. Dragons go on a 3-month summer vacation every year, and return again in September.
