An old dragon and his treasure trove of books
Illustrations by Nadine Y. Resch
Tinka is terribly bored. So the little princess decides to sneak into the castle’s forbidden cellar. There, she discovers something astonishing: an old dragon dozing atop a huge pile of books! His name is Patu, and he’s a guardian of stories. But unfortunately he keeps falling asleep, so lately lots of books have gone missing. This gives Tinka an idea: Patu can tell her stories to keep himself awake, and together they can find out who’s behind the disappearances. The dragon thinks this is a great plan, and tells tales of fearless pirate children searching for treasure, of a courageous rabbit, and of a mermaid and her heart’s desire. The stories are so exciting, Tinka almost forgets about the book thief...
