Turns fairy tales on their heads with a lazy dragon and a boy learning what bravado the world gets up to when people think they know the story.

A fun fairy tale spoof about a dragon who far prefers poetry and the arts to fighting and rampaging. When Sir George is called in because, well, there's a DRAGON so it of course must be killed, the boy who has befriended the dragon is called upon to try to meditate, with a rather humorous result. Fun, but not fabulous - thus 3 stars.

Mildly amusing but nothing special. We picked this as a quickie while waiting for one of our holds to become available.

A fun enough story. I love to read aloud but the way this was written had me stumbling at times. It actually took us a few tries to get into it but I think my kids enjoyed it.

I like the writing and storytelling style. There are many funny situations as well as observations of what people can be. I love all the main characters and I enjoyed the whole story, including the end.
