Then he puffs it in the faces of his friends: the zebra, the giraffe, and the elephant. He even blows smoke rings around his own tail to prove how clever he is.Soon Dexter has no friends left. He is a very lonely dragon indeed, until quite by accident he discovers a way his talent can be used to win back his playmates.This wonderful story -- first published in 1953 -- will delight both young readers and their parents, and so will Lisa McCue's appealing new pictures of this lovable show-off.

  • The Unicorn & The Dragon

    Laura Hesse

    language (Running L Productions, Aug. 6, 2018)
    The ghost of Sir Lancelot helps Jessie and her unicorn friend, Gus, stop a dragon from destroying the Great Plains and even Time itself. Jessie discovers how to release the power of the magical Karkadan horn to do good and Gus finds the courage to live up to being the son of The Unicorn King.This story is suitable to be read to ages 4 and up. (There are some scary parts, but no explicit violence, and of course, it has a fairy tale ending) Reading level is 7 - 10. The story is in an easy to read play format. It can be read as is as a short bedtime story or the kids can act it out as a play. This was one of the kids favorites during my school readings to ages 7 - 10. Many of the kids liked to read it along with me and act out the characters, hence the format. The audio book, once released, will match the print and e-book word for word and is a fun way for kids to learn to read.

    Inspired by the latest Slug Man movie, Eric and Pan decide to enter a competition for young filmmakers on the theme of superheroes. Naturally, the Mini-Dragon has a real talent for scriptwriting. If only they had something better to make their film on than Mum’s dodgy old mobile…Then Toby from next door steps in and offers to lend Eric some new kit – on the condition that he can be the producer. Before long, Toby takes over completely, sacking Eric’s friends from the lead roles, doing a complete rewrite of the script and hiring a team of pros to get the film finished. Eric says he wants nothing more to do with the project and, with only a couple of days before the screening, there’s no time to start again.But Pan secretly works behind the scenes to bring Eric’s original vision to life. Eric’s film goes down a storm at the screening, with Pan stealing the show as a giant fire-breathing dragon. Eric bags the award for best special effects, while a furious Toby walks away with nothing.

  • The Dragon

    Mer Linn

    eBook
    The text of this fairy tale was found as a manuscript, near a very old oak, while traveling through the endless fields and forests of Britain. The tale was written in several ancient European languages, alternating between each from one sentence to the next without any apparent logic, though there was probably some fabulous meaning hidden in it. The last sentences were written in modern Russian. Translators and linguists easily translated the manuscript, and, after reading the fairy tale, one teenaged girl painted pictures for it. But all this was probably not in such way, and perhaps everything had happened completely in another way....
