Crimson Wings: The Boy Who Flew By B.T. Skylark London, 1940. The city is at war-and so is Henry. Twelve years old, orphaned, and different in ways no one understands, Henry Portwhistle lives in a former workhouse under the cold eye of a cruel matron. The world feels too loud, too fast, too confusing. He keeps his head down, avoids attention, and longs for somewhere quiet-somewhere safe. Everything changes the day he finds a glowing red egg on the banks of the Thames. From it hatches Crimson, a dragon unlike anything Henry has ever imagined. Ancient, intelligent, and quietly powerful, Crimson chooses Henry-not just as a rider, but as a friend. Together, they flee the city and soar into the wild countryside, hunted by shadowy men who want to use the dragon for Britain's war effort. But Crimson isn't a weapon. And Henry isn't just a lost boy. As they journey north through smoke-covered skies and war-torn villages, Henry must face the truth about himself, his past, and the growing danger that threatens them both. With a tattered compass, an unexpected friend, and a dragon bound by memory and myth, Henry discovers that sometimes the quietest voices carry the most strength-and even the smallest choices can change the course of history. Crimson Wings: The Boy Who Flew is a heart-stirring middle grade novel about bravery, belonging, and the quiet magic of being different. Perfect for readers aged 10 and up who love How to Train Your Dragon, Skellig, and stories where the underdog rises on wings of fire.
