Description

Now in paperback from the bestselling creators of The Gruffalo and Room on the Broom, Zog the dragon returns as a flying ambulance in this funny, rhyming read-aloud!

Zog the dragon, Princess Pearl, and Sir Gadabout take to the skies! No sniffly lion or sunburned mermaid will go without care while the flying doctors are on duty. The king thinks princesses should stay in their towers and embroider cushions all day, but when a mysterious illness befuddles the royal doctors, it's Princess Pearl to the rescue! She not only heals the king -- she also changes his mind about what it means to be a princess.

From the creators of modern classics The Gruffalo, Room on the Broom, and The Baddies, the heroes of A Gold Star for Zog fly again in this story of the value of letting your talent shine, all told in Julia Donaldson's enchanting rhymes with Axel Scheffler's witty illustrations.

Praise for Zog and the Flying Doctors

Praise for A Gold Star for Zog:

A New York Times Notable Book

"Donaldson... is a master of witty comic rhyme and original stories with heart. Here she and Scheffler outdo themselves with the smart, funny -- dare I say, deep? -- story of a dragon in training, a princess who wants to be a doctor and a knight who could use a bit of rescuing. The book gets a gold star too." -- New York Times

"A delightful new twist on happily-ever-after." -- School Library Journal
