The Book of Dragons (Edith Nesbit Classics)

"Next day the Dragon was still quiet, though the more poetic of Lionel's subjects could see the redness of the Dragon shining through the green trees quite plainly. So Lionel put on his crown and sat on his throne and said he wanted to make some laws." "The Book of Dragons" by Edith Nesbit is a collection of stories and fairy tales with tongue in cheek morals and a delightful balance between imagination, nonsense and social commentary.
