Three Tales of My Father's Dragon | Ruth Stiles Gannett
Mehso-so

These were short tales about adventures from a little boys father‘s dragon and I liked that they all connected but were separate stories, it built suspense each time I started to read a new part

We finished this charming book last night. Luke loved the story of Elmer Elevator and Boris the baby dragon. Super adorable illustrations. Warms my heart that my techy, video game loving kid enjoyed this quaint tale.

My oldest turned 3 last month and just finished listening to his first ever chapter book. He was hooked from the moment he learned that Elmer Elevator also wants an airplane when he grows up. 🛩 #aviatorboy #raisingreaders

Don't you just love re-reading your childhood favorites? These books are just as exciting as they were the first time I read them. And my little girl is loving them too! ☺️
