One day Princess Annalise and her Golden, Miss Daisy, were out for a
walk in the royal gardens when they heard a strange sound. When they
went to see what the problem was, they found a dragon sobbing. He was
sad because he could not breathe fire and he was very fat. All the other
dragons teased him because of his shortcomings. Princess Annalise
offered to create a weight loss program for him.
At first, Gordon, the chubby dragon moaned and wheezed at having to run, skip rope, swim laps, and row across the royal lake. But gradually, his stamina increased. Annalise had the royal artisans make Gordon some fun exercise equipment. Together they pedaled happily around the royal grounds on the bicycle built for two.
Does Gordon lose the weight? What does he learn about achieving goals? What do the two discover about friendship? Read Princess Annalise and The Fat Dragon to find out! This tale for four to eight-year-olds is a good home or school discussion starter for talking about such real-life issues as: teasing others who are different; setting and working toward goals; loneliness; friendship; obesity; and the importance of exercise.
