I'm Going on a Dragon Hunt
Illustrated by Charlotte Firmin
We used to do this book when I was a Brownie, only then it was about a little Red Indian boy who went for walk 'through the long grass, swish, swish; through the mud, slerp, slerp; etc. etc. until he gets to a cave, finds a bear and runs home through all the obstacles in reverse. In this version of the old game, it's a little boy who is hunting dragons, otherwise the format is the same. He travels through, up, over and across a variety of terrain with a variety of sound effects required until he comes face to face with...yes, the dragon. It is great fun, easy to read and interestingly illustrated. The sort of book, in fact, that is re-read and re-read just for pure fun. Very successful.
