Summary: A "have to" read story for everyone!
Review: I read this wonderful tale to my first graders EVERY year. They love it and are in love with the baby dragon from page 1. This book is one of the best kept secrets in children's literature. Read all three today and you'll reread them for years to come. BRAVO!

Summary: Keeps children from 6-11 interested. Wonderful, imaginative
Review: I read to 21 classes in an elementary school and have been reading these (all 3) for 5 years. I read it to 2nd thru 4th grades and there hasn't been one child who did not LOVE these books. Even the teachers love them and ask for them each year. They and funny, exciting and very imaginative. The pictures are great also. Since these were written when I was very small, the only thing I regret is that I did not know about them then and even when my own children were growing up. Please recemmend these books to all!!!!!!

Summary: The Dragon and Elmer
Review: I started to read books when I was 3 years old. When my dad read My Father's Dragon to me, I was. . .well, I don't know, but I think 5. I have a dragon doll and I really recommend the book. It was an exciting adventure and I really like the cat. The cat is real nice and talks about her journey to Elmer. Please enjoy this book. Do you think others would recommend the book? Well, I would. This book is so incredible. Share this book with friends and family.

Summary: Delightful Surprise
Review: I was browsing the list of audiocassettes and happened across "Three Tales of My Father's Dragon." I read the other reviews and decided to buy it for my son (who is 4). We absolutely fell in love with all three stories! We listen to it ALL the time! We leave one cassette in the house to listen to at night and one in the car. We have had the tapes for two months and have not tired of listening to them. My son just laughs and loves all the aspects of these stories. The acting of all the characters is so vibrant and you quickly realize that each character has his own distinct personality and voice! I would HIGHLY reccomend these stories! They are fantastic!

Summary: Outstanding read-aloud book, very clever story
Review: Much like Harvey Potter's Balloon Farm, the My Father's Dragon trilogy is a fun read, and has a mixture of absurdity and humor that appeals on multiple levels. It's an easy read to a toddler, with several pictures throughout, and journey maps on the inner covers. Since the chapters are short, you can do two or three a night without losing continuity. At the same time, the story has enough depth and cleverness that the parent can remain engaged. Thus, it's a catalyst for bonding. One of the things that makes it special is the main character. Elmer Elevator, on the advice of a stray cat, starts out on a noble odyssey to free a baby dragon from its animal tormentors. In his preparation, Elmer packs dozens of seemingly useless items, including a magnifying glass, brush, sandwiches, and lollipops. While he travels across Wild Island, all these items become essential, and you wonder if the story was being told by MacGyver :-) We've read the trilogy to completion five times and it's still a hit with everyone.

Summary: Excellent reading for all ages...
Review: My daughters both bring me this book to read over and over (in between Harry Potter books), chapter by chapter. It's one of the only books they'll actually sit still for. The imagery combines with a well-paced story-line for an excellent read. Get this handy volume that has all three books rolled into one.
