Be a Good Dragon

Be a Good Dragon
by Kurt Cyrus (Author / Illustrator)

Booktalk: When Enzo the dragon catches a cold, it’s no mere sniffle. No indeed! His coughs and sneezes set fields aflame and barns on fire. The villagers are fleeing their farms and the townsfolk are up in arms. What’s a poor fire-sneezing dragon to do?

Snippet:
“Bake be all bedder!” the dragon demands.
The wizard starts chanting and waving his hands.

“Abrcadabra! The thing I suggest
is plenty of fluids and plenty of rest!”
