Clash of the Covers

I was re-shelving my books yesterday and I noticed that Patricia C. Wredes Enchanted Forest Series has had some make overs. After looking at all of my books it looks like there were three make overs for the covers.

Here are the first lovely Ladies, published from Scholastic Inc:



Dealing with Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 1) Searching for Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 2)




Calling on Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 3)Talking to Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 4)

Here are the new covers now form Magic Carpet Books:




Dealing with Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 1) Searching for Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 2)



Calling on Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 3) Talking to Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 4)


Both versions are great. But the first couple or so books of this series I have different covers for. In fact, the ones my local library had where different. I'm not sure if Scholastic bought the series from Jane Yolen Books, I didn't find much information on it. So I'll simply post the covers here. Personally, they are my favorite covers.




Dealing with Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 1) Searching for Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 2)



Calling on Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 3) Talking to Dragons (The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book 4)

Anywho, hoped you all enjoyed !

They were first published by Jane Yolen Books in hard cover. Magic Carpet in paperback (part of Harcourt.) And in the Scholastic Book Clubs and Fairs in paperback.
