About this book
This is a very funny picture book about three wicked dragons: Scorch, Grub and Fang.
They start off stomping around doing bad dragon stuff, such as smashing up cute little bunny picnics. But Scorch is not quite so bad and actually wants to be a chef. Whereas Grub does actually enjoy playing with children.
Fang is left being bad on his own, but where's the fun in that? A good moral tale to help young children calm down with a book and have a lot of fun doing so.
The story is told in super rhyming style and is fabulously easy to read out loud (the text makes it especially inviting to do funny voices). And like the best picture books, there are all sorts of mini-stories being told in the illustrations to talk about.
Very entertaining indeed for a group reading in an early years setting or Key Stage 1 class, or one to one at home.
