The Boy Who Grew Dragons

by Andy Shepherd

When Tomas finds a strange tree in his grandad’s garden, he doesn’t expect much—until one of its fruits hatches into a tiny dragon named Flicker.

Life with a dragon is full of surprises, from fiery toothbrushes to pants on the TV aerial. But as more dragonfruits begin to grow, Tomas realises he’s not just looking after one dragon—he’s officially growing them!
