What we do
Make it
easy for you to purchase books you cannot find elsewhere;
out-of-print, rare, or hard-to-find titles by
Charlotte Zolotow,
Maurice Zolotow,
Crescent
Dragonwagon, and
Ned Shank.
In
some cases, signed books or book-plates are available, too.
We also have rare early editions of
some Charlotte Zolotow books which were later reissued with
different illustrations, and some foreign editions of books by both
Zolotows and Dragonwagon. (Left,
the cover of
Snippets, one of
Charlotte's best loved, but hardest to find titles! But,
DragonZbooks has it!)
But for the obscure Dragonwagon-Zolotow- Shank titles, or signed
books, you have come to the right place.
(right, another of DragonZBooks hard-to-find
titles, The Dairy Hollow House Cookbook.
Be sure to try the Garlic Spaghetti and Elsie’s
Gingerbread.)

Who we are
Charlotte Zolotow,
a children's book writer and editor / publisher
emeritus at HarperCollins, was married to the late Hollywood biographer
/ freelance magazine writer Maurice Zolotow. They had two children, a
son and daughter.
Stephen Zolotow
is a world renowned
poker player. But
Crescent Dragonwagon, once Ellen Zolotow
(see
Is That Your Real Name?) loosely followed the family tradition by
becoming a writer. Like her mother, she writes children's books; like
her father, she writes magazine articles and the occasional novel, and,
unlike either of them, she also writes cookbooks.
This literary family included, by marriage, the late
Ned Shank,
who was married to Crescent for 23 years. Shank's first book,
The Sanyasin's First Day
was published
in 1999, while an essay of his appeared in the book Sentinels of
History.
Like most writers, the extended Zolotow-Dragonwagon clan is pretty
left-brain. Therefore, order fulfillment and organization of this site
is handled by
dragonzbooks@cox.net
