Description: Fire-breathing dragons are the epitome of mystical evil. From guarding princesses in towers to destroying villages with fiery fury, dragons are found in fairy tales from all over the world, including The Prince and the Dragon. Equally chilling are tales of Mr. Miacca and his penchant for eating little children and The Singing Bone, "The Story of the Fisherman," and "Molly Whuppie," which introduce readers to the darker side of fairy tales. Charming, colorful images and illustrations offset some of the more macabre content and encourage readers imaginations.
