A roaring good time for young readers, this whimsical and downright silly collection of facts, history, and lore offers a delightful peek into the secret world of dragons. Although not one word in this absurdly illustrated book is true, readers will find a wealth of information that will tickle their fancy and funny bones.

Discover playful “facts” and colorful rumors about dragon life—from the basic anatomy of the species to the history of the friendship between dragons and humans and why it ended.

There’s a collection of types of dragons: wimpy ones the size of annoying insects to giant ones that live in caves, volcanoes, or clouds.

We learn the stages of a dragon’s childhood from hatched egg to advanced schooling.

There’s a rogue’s gallery of infamous dragons; a sampling of popular dragon hobbies, and a guide to dragon health and common afflictions.

Fact: Dragons can lick their elbows.

Fact: Dragons are fluent in eighteen languages.

Fact: Dragons don’t actually breathe fire—they just have really bad indigestion.

Fact: This book is perfect for kids that love dragons, facts, and a good laugh.
