One book that I think would make a wonderful animated film is
*Dragonsinger* by Anne McCaffrey. I found this book when I was in my teens
and it is still one of my favorites. This is such wonderful story and I
imagine that the animators could do something really special with the fire
lizards.

After seeing the special effects in *Dragon Heart*, I'm sure that just
about any of Anne McCaffrey's Dragon books could be turned into an
exciting movie. The problem would be in whether or not Hollywood would be
willing to leave the story lines intact.
