When a winter storm blankets the Scottish hills in snow, Florence the Border Collie sets off on an adventure she'll never forget.
Shy and cautious about most things, Florence is brave enough to face the icy winds alongside her loving human mummy, Debra. But when their peaceful hike over the Campsie Fells turns into a rescue mission, Florence must find the courage to save a stranger trapped in the snow-and confront the mysterious danger of a giant animal trap.
With a little help from her magical friends, a kind-hearted dragon named Laura and the Arctic unicorn, Aurorla, Florence learns that bravery isn't about being fearless. It's about helping others, even when you're scared.
Filled with heartwarming friendship, gentle humour, and just a touch of magic, Florence and the Dragon is a beautifully told story of courage, kindness, and the power of believing in yourself.
Perfect for children aged 6-10, animal lovers, and families who enjoy enchanting adventures with real-world lessons.

Born in Calderdale, Debra loved cycling and walking in the Yorkshire countryside almost as soon as she could walk. In her teens, she fell in love with the Lake District and hoped she might one day live there. Living opposite the Rowntree Mackintosh factory (now Nestlé), Debra developed a sweet tooth. Her cycles and walks always involved chocolate, such as a Yorkie Bar, Toffee Crisp, or Quality Street chocolates, but Debra was also quite partial to Cadbury's Dairy Milk. In 2005, Debra moved to Scotland, married Scotsman Jim, and became Mrs Murphy. Debra still lives in Scotland with her husband and their Border Collie, eating chocolate, walking, cycling, and writing. She continues to dream of living in the Lake District.
