This is another series where I missed a book when reading these as a child (The Dragon's Quest being the missing book). This was published almost twenty years after the previous books in the series, but I thought that it had the same overall feel to the series and was just as good to read.

I love the books about R. Dragon. He is one of the most engaging characters I know in children's literature. Again, his charm wins the hearts of everyone .

This seems to have been written quite a long time after the other three that belong to this series, and it's quite different. I'm not sure I buy the idea of a dragon that lives in the water and moors himself up next to boats.
But it's a sweet story, featuring a dragon who gets grumpy when he's hungry, on his holiday (from Cornwall) in Weymouth.
I can't recommend it unless you've read the others and have a burning desire to complete the set (my reason).
