For thousands of years humans have feared or revered dragons, be they winged fire-breathing monsters from Europe or slithering water gods from Asia. In this book readers will be charmed by ancient myths and learn about the cultures that gave birth to these legendary monsters. Includes the stories of Fafnir, a dragon from Norse mythology whose greed gets the better of him, and the female dragon-slayer from the Arabic folktales One Thousand and One Nights. Readers will also learn about the link between dragons and dinosaurs, meet real-life dragons such as Komodo dragons and bearded dragons, study dragon constellations, and wonder at the popularity of games such as Dungeons & Dragons.
