Fergal
5 total works
A dragon with a short temper is not a good combination, as Fergal's family and friends soon find out. He burns the dinner (literally), reduces the football goal to ashes and absolutely cannot play a nice, quiet board game. It is only when he starts to notice other animals have clever tricks to calm down that Fergal begins to win back his friends, especially when he discovers dragons can cool off in a very handy way.
Fergal is off to Dragon Camp and he’s feeling a bit worried. He’ll be meeting lots of new dragons and trying lots of new things. All he wants is to be the best at everything (even if it means cheating) and for everyone to like him (because he's the best), but things don't quite go according to plan. Oh dear, Fergal, what a fix! Following the Waterstones Prize-shortlisted Fergal is Fuming, this is Rob Starling's second book featuring a well-meaning dragon whose actions often miss the mark.
