()
About this ebook
In an enchanted world full of magical creatures, a group of Gemstone Dragons live in Sparkle Cave deep inside Mineral Mountain. Each dragon has a unique magical power that comes from their gemstone, and while the powers are fun, sometimes they get the dragons into trouble. But there's no problem the Gemstone Dragons can't overcome by working together.
Emerald has THE BEST gift planned for Sapphire's birthday this year! He's collected every wildflower seed in Gemstone Valley so he can grow a special garden. But Emerald's plan means that no flowers bloom in the rest of the Valley, which makes the other dragons and creatures sad. When Emerald's plan goes wrong, he finds himself in the middle of a flowery mess. Can Emerald fix everything himself? Or will he realize that sometimes sharing is even better than winning?
Join this adorable group of dragons on an action-packed adventure filled with magic, friendship, and teamwork!

Gemstone Dragons 4 - Samantha M. Clark
chapter one
KEEPING SECRETS
Emerald raced out of Sparkle Cave. He was late! Amber had told all the Gemstone Dragons to go to the daisy patch near the Friendly Forest at nine o’clock for a secret meeting about Sapphire’s birthday party. Sapphire was the oldest and wisest of all the Gemstone Dragons, and everyone wanted her party to be special. Emerald couldn’t wait for the party. He was planning a surprise of his own, and he knew all the dragons would love it.
When he got close to the daisy patch, he skidded to a halt behind Aquamarine, who was looking out to make sure Sapphire didn’t come this way. Has the meeting started?
Emerald asked.
Aquamarine nodded. Do you know what the dragon who was late to the meeting said?
No, what?
It was just a matter of time. Get it? Because you’re late, you have a lack of time?
Aquamarine laughed.
Har har,
Emerald said. He didn’t think the joke was all that funny. He hurried on to the meeting.
When he got to the cluster of dragons, Amber was asking everyone what they were going to bring to the party.
I’ll bake the cake,
Diamond said, grinning. Sapphire loves my cakes. She should have only the best.
Okay, Diamond is doing the cake,
Amber said, jotting it down in her notebook.
We’ll make the other food,
said Topaz, pointing to herself and Ruby.
Yeah,
said Ruby, then added under her breath, and it’ll be just as yummy as the cake.
Emerald tried not to laugh. Diamond always thought what he did was the best.
I thought we could make a special stage for the party,
Obsidian said. We could act out stories about Sapphire and even sing songs. Do you want to do that with me, Amber?
Sure! That’s a great idea,
Amber said. What about decorations?
Opal’s paw shot up. Aquamarine and I can do the decorations.
Perfect,
said Amber. You’re good at that. Your bedcave always looks wonderful.
Opal blushed. Thank you, Amber. I’m not sure what we’ll use to decorate, though. I’d love to decorate with flowers. Sapphire loves flowers! But I haven’t seen many in Gemstone Valley.
I noticed that too,
said Garnet. There are usually lots of flowers blooming around Sapphire’s birthday, but not now.
A murmur went through the crowd of dragons. Emerald could see that they were nodding and agreeing with Opal and Garnet. He stepped back, hoping no one would ask him about it.
I need honeysuckle for my cake!
Diamond stomped his foot. Sapphire likes it with lots of sweet honeysuckle.
I’d love to have pansy petals for a salad,
Topaz said.
Mmmm, yes.
Ruby rubbed her tummy thinking about it. They taste so minty and they look so pretty.
Emerald shrank back even more.
The stage would look great covered in flowers,
said Obsidian. Sapphire would love that too!
Opal nodded. She really would. But where are we going to find enough flowers? Emerald?
She glanced around. Emerald had stepped so far back, he was no longer in the circle of dragons. Where did Emerald go? He was just here.
Emerald wanted to hide so no one would ask him about the flowers. He thought about hurrying away, but it was too late. Amber spotted him.
He’s right there. Come and join us, Emerald.
He stepped forward again.
Hey, Emerald,
Opal said, do you know what happened to all the flowers?
Uh, no.
Emerald glanced down, trying
