Dragonrise

by Kathryn Cave, Liz Graham-Yooll (Illustrator)

One night, Tom finds a dragon under his bed. It's quite a friendly dragon but has a rather inconvenient appetite. Of course, what dragons really like to eat is young girls, but the only one of those to hand is Tom's sister and he couldn't really let the dragon eat her. Or could he?
