What would you do if your school was running a competition for the best flying dragon and you had a real, live, fire-breathing dragon at home? This is the dilemma that faces Harri, the central character in Dragon Gold. Harri is instantly likeable as the youngster whose hard work and talent at crafting costumes and models is topped constantly by the work of his friend s ultra-competitive Dad. The legends of Wales are woven lightly into a plot which soon has you rooting for Harri and his new best friend, the baby dragon, Tan. Best of all is Ryan s Dad. Although he is the one standing in the way of our hero s prize, he is driven by a compulsion to win rather than by actual meanness. The result is a hilarious and utterly believable character. Illustrated throughout by the author (I particularly liked the thumbnail sketches of the characters and would love a Tan of my own), Dragon Gold is a witty and ultimately heart warming story interspersed with some cracking Welsh legends and an adorable dragon. --Sarah T

Reseña del editor:

What would you do if there was a school competition to make a dragon that can fly? Ryan always wins everything, thanks to his incredibly competitive dad. Ryan will have the state-of-the-art gadget like always. Harri would love to know what it feels like to win, just once, but there's no chance. And then someone new walks into Harri's mum's shop. Someone almost invisible. What you would do if there was a competition to make a dragon - and you had a dragon? A real, fire-breathing, chocolate loving, very unpredictable dragon but you can't tell anyone...
