Somewhere Dragons Still Live
Stories of Friendship, Family and the Wonders Around Us
Series You Only Have to Look Closely
Vita Harwood
Collection of 21 Short Stories
A dragon, a giant, a travelling spider... Which story will your child choose first?
Somewhere Dragons Still Live by Vita Harwood brings together 21 short stories for children aged 9-13. Fairy tales and everyday adventures explore friendship, family life, animals and the world of work. There is plenty to spark the imagination, with familiar feelings and questions to bring the stories close to home.
These stories invite children to discover how kindness, generosity and helping others can lead to friendship. They offer a warm starting point for thinking about the people around us, appreciating different talents and finding what we love to do. Dragons and giants share the collection with the small discoveries that make ordinary life interesting.
A seed can grow into a tree and, with time and care, a garden can welcome birds and bear fruit. That same interest in living things runs through the book's outlook: look closely, ask questions and give yourself time to notice. An animal's behaviour, a flower or someone's everyday work can open up something new to explore.
Looking for children's short stories about kindness, animal tales or fantasy with a connection to real life? This collection offers a varied choice for independent reading and family read-aloud time. Share a story, hear what caught your child's attention and enjoy discovering the next one together.
Book Two in the You Only Have to Look Closely series. Open Somewhere Dragons Still Live and let your child's curiosity choose the way.
