'Can I have a dragon, please, Dad?'
The answer is no.
Or is it?
This is the picture-book-sized version of the classic pocket-sized first story in the bestselling, critically acclaimed series about Rascal the dragon.
In Rascal's world, dragons exist like dogs and fulfil all the doggy functions with dragon overlays like having two heads or being able to fly and breathe fire. These peculiarities go unremarked. Everything else in the world is normal (or as normal as Paul Jennings ever gets, let's face it).
The text makes use of repetition, phonically regular words and building on meaning to aid ease of reading in these early chapter books.
Read a Rascal story to your children and before long they'll read it to you.
