Description:
Imagine a scaly creature over a hundred feet long that spews fire from its mouth and beats its wings to fly. Or imagine another creature with the head of a camel, horns like a deer, and paws like a tiger. Dragon lore is found in cultures throughout the world, and different cultures imagine dragons differently. An English dragon might terrorize the countryside, while a Chinese dragon might cause a drought, a flood, or even a hurricane! In this stunning book, richly illustrated by Eukin Kim Neilan, Laurence Pringle explains how people came to believe in dragons, and offers young readers a lively look at dragons from cultures around the world.

An especial treat for young dragon lovers, though the abundance of text makes Imagine a Dragon ideal for readers who are just abFeb 07, 2008 Gorgeously illustrated by Eujin Kim Neilan, Imagine a Dragon is a children's picturebook about the many myths behind the magical, fantastic beast that is the dragon. From the serpent of Apep that attacked the sun god Ra every night according to Egyptian lore, to the Norse dragon Nidhoggr that gnawed at the roots of the great tree Yggdrasil, to East Asian dragons that regulated the weather, Imagine a Dragon spans the gamut of multicultural dragon lore. An especial treat for young dragon lovers, though the abundance of text makes Imagine a Dragon ideal for readers who are just about ready to move beyond picturebooks.
