The Book of Dragons

The Book of Dragons, a cherished and imaginative children's classic by Edith Nesbit first published in 1900, features children who encounter a variety of real, fantastical dragons—ranging from fiery and grumpy to gifted cooks—emerging from caves, magical books, and distant places like the North Pole. The stories are cleverly crafted, full of surprises and delight, and explore different encounters with these extraordinary creatures through vivid and engaging tales.
