Peasant Pig and the Terrible Dragon
Book Review
My favourite part is when the robbers are found out under the dragon costume
This book is fun to read and very funny!
The pictures are cool and beautiful.
My favourite part is when the robbers are found out under the dragon costume. They were clever to think up that.
My favourite character is Morbert because he’s a scary baddie but then he gets cake all over his helmet (That was very funny and made me laugh!)
But Peasant Pig is brave and clever and I like him too.
Lots of children will like this book especially if they like funny stories about goodies and baddies.
About the Book
As you can see from the front cover of this glossy paperback book Scarry’s beloved Busylande meets the Middle Ages – and the result is a joyful reworked fairy tale starring knights on horseback, wandering minstrels, intrepid peasants, a beautiful princess and a frightening dragon…. A perfect mix of familiar and fantasy for toddlers to learn new vocabulary, let their imaginations fly-free and enjoy pouring over the details in the pictures that are instantly recognisable as Scarry’s iconic illustrative style.
