so-so
Too banally goofy for the average adult, but maybe too crisp in its writing for the average child, this book left something to be desired. That something is not the art, however. The gorgeous illustrations are by Erik Blegvad, and they're alone worth the purchase of this collection of dragon-themed short stories.
onceuponanelderberry I think maybe the book just hasn't aged well! 4y
forfemfan Very possibly, considering it's from the 1800s. Occasionally there were moments that were brilliant and engaging, but then they'd fall apart in a paragraph or two. 4y
