Douglas the Dragon - Omnibus Edition

'Douglas the Dragon' symbolises 'the power of love'. A young orphaned dragon is found and adopted by a young boy and becomes a much-loved dragon in the village. When the boy is killed by a volcano, the dragon is eventually evicted from the community. The dragon spends 50 years in exile sitting upon his volcano of hate and getting angrier and angrier until his anger explodes and he seeks revenge. Old age and death are stages in a person's life that all children find difficult concepts to understand, but this is eased considerably when 'death' is associated with the concept of 'rebirth'. At a time of separation, bereavement or loss, children become more isolated, non-communicative and vulnerable. Allow Douglas to help them 'live again' through his own experiences of illness and near death.
