After a frightening thunder storm, Dragon’s friends come to visit and ask for a story.

Dozing Dragon Excerpt:
Raindrops dripped from the leaves in the enchanted forest. It was a soft lullaby, and Dragon sat by a patch of mushrooms, tap-tap-tapping paws to the soothing rhythm. Dragon didn’t mind getting a little wet once in a while. This rain was just a gentle shower. But then, the rain began to pour more rapidly, and the soft tapping turned into a loud drumbeat. Soon, the forest echoed with a loud rumble, followed by a crash and a flash of lightning. The clouds were thundering.
The sudden noises were startling, and Dragon jumped up and swiftly zipped back home, curling into a tight ball with eyes and ears covered. The little dragon felt safer in the darkness. Meanwhile, the crashing song of the rain started to relax, and eventually, it ceased.
