A captivating new edition of Dick King-Smith's beloved Dragon Boy, penned by the acclaimed author of Babe The Sheep-Pig, is now available for readers to immerse themselves in.

Montagu Bunsen-Burner, a meticulous individual, has embarked on a dietary journey. Focused on the well-being of his dragon, his wife, Albertina, has made the decision to exclude humans from their menu. However, when Montagu encounters an orphaned boy in the enchanting Sherwood Forest, he chooses to adopt him rather than resorting to barbecuing him.

Little John, the young orphan, brings a wealth of knowledge about herbs and cooking to the Bunsen-Burner family. His ingenuity in successfully hatching one of Albertina's eggs solidifies his place within the family. Alongside his loyal wolf, Bart, John courageously confronts a myriad of dangers, including ferocious animals, ruthless outlaws, and even the threat of fire. As he matures, so too grows the legend of the dragon boy, captivating the hearts of all who hear his tale.
