The Witch's Apprentice, Vol. 3

The Witch's Apprentice by Zetta Elliott is the third installment in the Dragons in a Bag series, continuing Jaxon's magical journey as he trains under Ma to become a witch. Since returning the baby dragons to the magical realm, strange things have been happening—New York's summer has turned unusually cold, a mysterious sleeping sickness is spreading, and Jaxon's friends Kenny and Kavita are beginning to change, taking on traits of the magical creatures they once cared for.

Jaxon is also hiding a secret: Vik has entrusted him with a phoenix egg, and Jax is determined to hatch it. But his lessons with Ma haven't seemed very helpful, and he's unsure where to find the strength and magic he needs. As tensions rise and secrets unfold, Jaxon must decide whether to follow orders or trust his instincts to protect his friends and the future of magic.
