Kisah naga baik hati, dengan keberanian yang berbeda namun luar biasa. Juga keberanian dan rasa ingin tahu yang luar biasa dari seorang anak laki-laki. Bacaan yang hebat untuk anak laki-laki saya

Picked this up in the library book sale today and was very pleasantly surprised! Love the style of the illustrations and the light-hearted storyline. Perfect for any fans of dragons!

I purchased this book for my 8 year old nephew as I knew he loved all things dragons and I wasn't disappointed. The book is beautifully illustrated and is, for a change, printed on decent paper! The story is all about a cowardly dragon called George who is banished from his own land until he is brave. He meets a young boy called Alric who is the blackmiths son and they strike up an unusual friendship until the wicked Lord Badwick arrives - and he only eats dragon! I won't say anymore as it might spoil the rest of the book, but it's a fabulous read with a lovely moral story running through it. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed the illustrations and the font in this book - it was definitely visually appealing to me. But the story was just "meh".
