That Pesky Dragon

That Pesky Dragon

by Melanie Williamson (Illustrator), Melanie Williamson (Illustrator), Melanie Williamson (Illustrator), Julie Sykes (Author)

Synopsis

Izzy's Dad had a farm. And on that farm there was a goat, a herd of cows, a flock of sheep, a brood of hens, three cats, two dogs... and a dragon!

The pesky dragon's fiery breath turns the eggs to hardboiled, the wheat fields to toast and the cows milk to yoghurt! But Izzy soon discovers that every farm needs a dragon around!

'... enriched by Melanie Williamson's dynamic illustrations, with their strong, textured colours and comic caricatures.'
THE SUNDAY TIMES
