The dragon roars at 2:17am.
But dragons aren't real... right?
When a blinding blue-white light blazes on the Great Wall of China and ancient artifacts vanish, eleven-year-old Alex Chen, his sharp-eyed sister Mia, and local Junior Ranger Li Wei know something is wrong.
The dragon isn't a myth. It's a crime.
Thieves are using drones, diesel generators, and light so bright it swallows the stars. With no cell service and no adults coming, the Junior Rangers have one choice:
Fight light... with light.
Using 600-year-old Ming fire signals, real NASA satellite data, and a busted desk-fan drone, they must stop the Light Thieves before the Great Wall's history-and the Milky Way itself-disappears forever.
Perfect for kids 8-12 who love:
STEM adventures (real science, satellites, engineering)
Mysteries in real places (The Great Wall, Ming Dynasty)
Eco-fiction with heart (light pollution, dark sky parks)
Action + teamwork (kids vs. thieves, ancient vs. modern)
Perfect for readers who enjoy the adventure of Magic Tree House, the mystery of National Park Mysteries, the heart of The Green Ember, and the humor of Horrible Histories.
Book 2 of the Great Wall Junior Rangers series
A thousand people, one wall. A million stars, one sky. One kid, one light switch.
Turn the page. The dragon roars at 2:17am.
