Rory and the Snack Dragons

By (author) Louisa MacDougall; Illustrated by Giulia Cregut

Rory is an unusual sort of dragon – he would rather hide than go hunting and he would far rather eat a tasty bicycle than a juicy princess.

In this first book in the Snack Dragon series, Rory bites off more than he can chew when he steals a bike and accidentally kidnaps the princess who owns it. Now both their kingdoms are in danger and they must team up to save them – but what hope do they have, when they can’t even agree on what (or who) is for lunch?

A magical adventure story for children aged 6+, with themes of resilience, teamwork and sustainability.

Rory And The Snack Dragons is the first book in a brand new chapter book series for 6 to 9 year-olds. This funny, magical story from debut author Louisa MacDougall is about about the unlikely friendship between Rory, a dragon outcast who likes to eat bicycles, and Flora, a plucky princess who loves to ride them.
