The Dragon, the Moon and the Boy
Long time ago, there lived a lonely dragon unlike any other. While the rest of his kind were content with scaring children and using their fire breath for destruction, he and his gentle heart longed for something far greater and meaningful, a true friend.
One silver-bright night, his longing reached the stars and he is told by the Moon Queen that he will soon make a friend on Earth.
Where others find shadows and darkness, the dragon and his friend see beyond, towards wonder and magic.
​
The Dragon, the Moon and the Boy is a timeless and heart-warming tale about friendship, choosing to be yourself and the power of kindness.
