What is the author's style in Dragon's Blood: The Pit Dragon Chronicles, Volume One by Jane Yolen?

The language of this novel is designed for a younger audience, so is informal and easy to read. There are some larger words, but the writing style is such that a younger reader should have no problems discerning the meaning of even the larger words, as they are used well contextually. There are some areas of language specific to the novel, such as the longer passages about dragon lore and dragon anatomy, but even these passages are explained in detail, so these areas do not cause increased difficulty in understanding the novel.
