Dragons have ignited our imaginations for centuries! They’ve been important to fantasy books for just as long. While some dragons are as friendly as can be, there are others who wouldn’t mind a little, tasty human for a snack. Plus, there’s so many different ways dragons can look, depending on the culture they’re from! Some dragons fly through the sky without wings, and some slither over land with no legs. What do dragons look like where your family is from? Here are a couple books for different ages with all sorts of dragons in them!
