Over de auteur
‘Princess, I’m sad because I’m smaller than the other dragons in the Festival of Flames.
The other dragons tease me and call me names.’
‘Why would they laugh at you?
That’s not a kind thing to do!’
‘I am very small.
They don’t think I can do anything at all.
I can’t send my flames high in the sky.
Why, oh, why should I even try?’
