Gus hasn't gotten the hang of his powers yet, and he's feeling a bit down. His best friend Ember tries to cheer him up with a trip to the orchard. On the way, Gus gets an important message from a nearby patch of flowers: the flowers need help! Will Gus figure out how to use his new power to connect with plants? Gus and Ember also meet a new friend along the way!

Gus and Ember's adventure is told through five full-color short stories with easy-to-read text throughout! This series is set in the same fantasy world as Tracey West's New York Times bestselling Dragon Masters series, making Dragon Hill a perfect choice for budding readers who aren't quite ready to read the Branches series yet!
