The Reluctant Dragon
Author: Kenneth Grahame
When a dragon is discovered up on the Downs, the Boy is not in the least surprised. He's always known the cave there was a dragon cave, so it seems only right for a dragon to be living in it. The Boy decides to pay a visit to the cave, and he thinks he knows just what to expect. But this particular dragon is not a bit like the ones in fairy tales!

In this story, a boy and a dragon become friends. The town discovers the dragon and want the dragon gone. The town members make up stories about the dragon that aren't true and get a dragon slayer. The boy comes up with an idea to keep the dragon safe. The book has really nice illustrations and makes us think twice about judging people.
