What is Dragon Dave the (Not-So) Brave about?

Dragon Dave has been trapped inside a story for as long as he can remember, with the same soggy ending awaiting him every time: becoming dragon soup. Then Prince George shows Dave that stories can be changed. As Dave explores the pages and rewrites the words, he discovers that he does not have to behave like a ‘proper’ dragon. With humour, friendship and a dash of courage, Dave sets out to create a new ending for himself.
