Synopsis
Everyone knows that since a Dragon IS a Dragon and St. George IS St. George, there will have to be a fight.
Everyone, that is, except the Dragon. He'd rather write poetry. This wonderful, whimsical story is by the author of The Wind In The Willows. Performed by John and Ginny Dildine, with Gordon Bok as the Dragon.

Reviews
ea. vol: unpaged. CIP. Troll. 1987. PLB 9.79; pap. $1.95. Grade 1-2 These versions of two classics are ephemeral in every way. The Reluctant Dragon is paraphrased and shortened to the point of being a plot summary (``The boy was happy because he got to see a good fight and no one was hurt. And the dragon was happy because he had made a lot of new friends''), accompanied by bland, cute illustrations that sometimes resemble Shepard's in subject or composi tion but never in imagination. The text of The Velveteen Rabbit is more nearly in tact, but once again the illustrations carry little personality, lacking either the energy of Nicholson's (Doubleday, 1958) or the romanticism of Michael Hague's (Holt, 1983). Steer readers to the originals. John Peters, New York Public Library
