The Battle in Shadow Forest Deborah Thomas

Adventurous Anya Tamarkin of Majadon lives near the capital, where the king's castle oversees the port on the Otohosk Sea.

One peaceful afternoon, she wades in the Rusakov River and meets a boy and gentle dragon. Can it be trusted?

But soon the villages are thrown into chaos when a Siberian tiger is seen running off with what looks like a human infant dangling from its mouth. Is Majadon under attack? Should Anya and Max ask the dragon for help?
