The book doesn't have any kobold-specific things it in, but it does have a lot of things you could easily use with kobolds (or even give only to kobolds). It's feats, spells, single core class, and some other rule modules can be used to make anyone or anything more draconic in one way or another. The only thing I can think of off-hand that can only apply to true dragons is the ability substitutions, which are very cool but designed for the core dragons' special abilities (and don't take up more than a few pages anyway).
Writing the book was a challenge, since Rodney and I wanted the book to be useful and interesting for everyone, but didn't want to go over the same territroy as Draconomicon or the dragon-themed Races book. I think we did a good job, but since we weren't trying to make a book that did exactly what either of those did, I never get offended when someone suggests you might want to buy one of those books first. You certainly can use Dragon Magic on its own, but it was after all written in an environment where those two popular books already existed.
We also took a little space to support the most popular non-core classes and rules we could think of, so warlocks, psionics and binders all have some draconic love in the book. Also, the hexblade, shugenja and wu jen get additions to their spell lists, though not much else class-specific, and we played with some of the new rules in PHB II. On the other hand much of the book can work with any class and only the core rules, which was the point.
