4.0 out of 5 stars
Loved the book!,
By Amy Eye (IL, US) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dragon, Dragon, and Other Tales (Hardcover)
I would have liked for there to be more stories in this short stories book. Although none of them had a typical "happy ending", they all were very entertaining. These stories can be read by or to younger readers although I do not think they will get as much out of them as a YA reader would.
The short stories can be twisted to teach a story, or you can just read them for sheer entertainment. Although, I'm not sure how the last story, "The Last Piece of Light," teaches anything. That story I believe can have lessons taught from it, but I don't feel that was the major intention of the story. These are just very fun, goofy stories! I am definitely going to be looking for more from John Champlin Gardner. I know it was only a VERY short book, but I enjoyed every page.

Les Must for Second & Third Graders,
By Arnold F. Williams "Thoughts Online Magazine" (Santa Monica, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dragon, Dragon: and Other Tales (Kindle Edition)
Fairy stories: a time out from reality or a way to look at things from another angle? This book belongs firmly in the second camp, and the first story, "Dragon,Dragon" is now my daughter's favorite, and she has asked for it to be read to her friends so they can all laugh together at the silliness.
