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.
