The Book of Dragons (Hardcover)

About The Book of Dragons (Hardcover)

This enchanting set of eight children's tales by Edith Nesbit tell of a variety of dragons and their abilities. Crammed with the unique wit and phrasing for which Nesbit was known, The Book of Dragons has surprised and entertained children for generations. The stories hold charm for juxtaposing the modern world with those of ancient myth - in one classic account, the dragon flies out of the very text in which it is contained and eats an entire team of soccer players. Each story has a good combination of wit, mythology, magic and intensity to keep adults and their youngsters enthralled. Perfect for bedtime reading, each story within this book is roughly 10 to 15 pages in length, with the witty dialogue a particular strong point.
