A boy and his dragon explore a mysterious new island in this charming tale featuring the original black-and-white illustrations—from the author of My Father’s Dragon, hailed as “a real delight” (The New Yorker) and now a Netflix animated film
“Rich, humorous, thoroughly satisfying.”—Library Journal (starred review)
After his exciting adventures on Wild Island, Elmer Elevator is ready to go home. Luckily, his new friend, the baby dragon, offers to fly him there. But when a storm forces them to make an emergency landing, they find themselves on Feather Island. This exotic place is inhabited by all the escaped canaries of the world and ruled by King Can XI, a curious canary desperately searching for buried treasure. Can clever Elmer use his creativity to save the day one more time?
First published in 1950, Elmer and the Dragon has delighted generations of young readers. It is classic storytelling at its finest.

Praise for My Father’s Dragon
“Here is a real delight—a nonsense tale in which the ingenuity of the humor and the logic of the nonsense are irresistible.”—The New Yorker
“The power of My Father’s Dragon lies in the author’s assurances that while the adults in our lives can set things right some of the time, children will also become strong and clever enough to take care of themselves, and, when the time comes, will rescue their own children.”—The Horn Book
