27 stories plus charming black & white illustrations. From the front flap: "In this fascinating, wide-ranging collection, you will find some of history's most famous dragons, from the fearful one slain by St. George, whose foul scales poisoned all the land, to Ch'ien T'ang, the terrible-tempered Chinese dragon who with one lash of his tail could cause a great wave to sweep over the shore, drowning whole villages in seconds. You'll find, too, dragons from surprising places -- Greece, Spain, even a Danish dragon. And, to give your tingling spine a rest, you will even come across some fairly pleasant dragons along the way. Among the famous authors Helen Hoke has brought together in this collection are Lewis Carroll, E. Nesbit, and Jorge Luis Borges."
