The Most Entertaining Dragon Books For Kids

By Enid Hinton


Mythical creatures with spikes, claws and wings that breathe fire have been the subject of much speculation through the ages. They appear in tales told by many different cultures all over the world. These creatures hold a fascination that makes them popular with people of all ages. Dragon books for kids are written in such a way as to be entertaining and humorous rather than frightening but they still have a magical quality about them.

The characters of the dragons in these stories are as diverse as the characters of humans. They may be fierce, grumpy, kind and funny. The way they look varies from smaller ones to enormous creatures with bodies of all shapes. They even come in all the colors of the rainbow, including pink. Most of them are fire breathing and have wings for flying. They are unpredictable creatures and a combination of the absurd and the practical often creates the kind of comedy that children thoroughly enjoy.

These creatures also go through many things experienced by children. They may be lonely and looking for friends, fearful and cowardly or clumsy and unable to do anything right. They may battle to fly and even set fire to their own wings. They may end up as the pet of a lonely child and go on adventures together.

Many of the stories involve situations in which a child sees things in a different light because they are seen through the eyes of dragons. Perhaps the creature is lonely and needs friends or it may be cowardly and need to face up to its fears. Having one as a pet with its unpredictable behavior can result in many entertaining situations, calling for many problem solving skills.

Dragons are found in all sorts of places in these stories. They not only live in caves and roam the skies but are found inside houses and even in schools and libraries. There are those who eat vegetables rather than meat and some that will do anything for a taco.

Parents who enjoy reading to their children find that they are quite enchanted by those that feature dragons. This enchantment often continues when they start choosing stories to read themselves. Now they can even continue reading about them in adolescence and beyond as there are novels about dragons written to suit every age group and type of reader.

Many people today choose to buy books online as this offers the option of easily comparing prices and reading reviews to find the most suitable options. Lists of best sellers are also available and there are many forums where parents make suggestions about stories their children have enjoyed. The ones that often have the most appeal for children are those that make them laugh.

Stories that make children laugh are often the ones that are most popular and memorable. Introducing dragons opens up many magical and entertaining possibilities. For a start, they look amazing with their shiny scales, wings, spikes, claws. Secondly, they breathe fire. Of course, they may set their wings on fire by mistake or crash while learning to fly. Children never tire of hearing about their exploits.
