The assemblage of interesting characters - each with their individual traits and needs, interfacing with a Wizard from medieval times, proves to be a fascinating, fun and very cinematic ride. He locates his magic dragon candle with the potential of being a 36 foot fire breathing dragon in a children's breakfast cereal box. This journey in which costumes, fantasy, dragons, dreams, love, trust, realization are combined by following a time traveling Wizard into the 21st Century retrieving a birthday candle he enchanted for the King's party is a clever, often complicated, always surprising story hidden within which lie jewels for growth and understanding for both youth and adult. I give this 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 18, plus adults. By Juror #11, KIDS FIRST!

Gandlin, a friendly wizard from the middle-ages creates an intricate candle in the shape of a dragon for the King's birthday bash. When the wizard's bumbling apprentice accidentally transports the candle into the 21st Century, and it ends up as a prize in a cereal box of a popular cereal brand, Gandlin has to retrieve it before someone lights the candle thus releasing a thirty-six foot fire breathing dragon.
