A child and a dog are out walking in Dragons’ Wood. As they explore, they wonder whether there might be dragons living there. 

They see strange footprints in the mud. There’s mist coming from a cave that looks like dragons’ breath - and, hidden in the fallen leaves, is something that could well be dragons’ eggs. 

Will the pair come across actual dragons, and what’s the relationship between seeing and believing?

A wonderful, imaginative picture book to share with young readers with pictures that take their inspiration from medieval woodcuts of dragons and their glowing colours from stained glass windows. 

Brian Moses is known chiefly for his poetry but here he has written a gentle story full of mystery and a quiet sense of another time, complemented by Ed Boxall’s colourful illustrations.
