description: Because only he can read the magic map, young, weak, and timid Rowan joins six other villagers to climb a mountain and try to restore their water supply, as fears of a dragon and other horrors threaten to drive them back. The people of Rin have long lived knowing the legend of the dragon on the Mountain, hearing the dragon's roar each day. When the village's precious stream stops flowing, young Rowan must join the six strongest leaders of Rin on a frightening journey to the Mountain to the stream's source, and Rowan weathers each test he is faced with.
