Description
Rediscover this magical story of a little girl and the dragon she finds in a cave in Cornwall, in this classic new edition.
She heard a noise very like a loud sneeze, and a little puff of green smoke came out of the cave and floated away into the air.
On holiday in Cornwall, while exploring along the coastline, Susan discovers something something quite different from anything she had ever seen before. It would be more polite to call him Someone rather than Something. Out of a cave comes a green scaly dragon, with yellow horns and a charming smile...
