This graphic starts with narrative text about dragons in general, then there's a comic section about the story of Bowulf and the Dragon, then it returns to narrative text about other famous dragons. The title feels misleading since the bulk of the volume is about one dragon in particular. I wish there was a comic section for each of the other famous dragons mentioned - or that it focused only on Beowulf. Still, the artwork is engaging and the text is clear and simple - good for grade 3+.
