Bradley's Dragons Patrick Matthews

"Bradley's Dragons is a magical journey that has a great message on handling bullying. It was an exciting adventure that my son couldn't put down." - Creative Child Magazine (winner of their 2020 Children's Book Of The Year award)




"A compelling cast of characters with rich backstories round out this fantastical story of a scared kid learning to stand up to bullies and be true to himself." - Booklife




"This book is seriously awesome! 5 stars are rare for us, yet we'd give this one 7 if that were possible. Seriously, I could barely put it down - great characters, good plot lines, enough depth, and breadth to really get into it. And finally, a tale told fully that will have you biting your nails and turning pages as fast as you can." - ReadingWithYourKids.com




The first time a hunter came for him, Bradley Nash was only nine years old. That was three years ago, and he barely escaped.




Now, he lives with his family in a Florida trailer park. He doesn't remember the attack, doesn't know anything about hunters, or dragons, or even magic. All he knows is that he suffers from a crippling fear of strangers. He sits in the back of his classes and keeps to himself, always worried that an anxiety attack may strike.




As his twelfth birthday approaches, however, he discovers that dragons, magic, and hunters are all real, and that he and his family are in more danger than he could possibly have imagined.




The hunters are coming and his world will never be the same.
