Nell and the Last Dragon

A spellbinding prequel to the beloved 1927 children's classic, this generational fantasy adventure follows young Nell, decades before she becomes "Grandma", into a hidden woodlot alive with dragons, pixies, enchanted magic and vanishing folklore. When Nell discovers a whole clan of gentle, misunderstood dragons facing extinction from encroaching farmland, greedy knights and a scheming dragon hunter, she forges a secret friendship with the last young dragon of his kind. Together they must outwit villains, protect ancient woodland magic and build a hidden sanctuary that will last for generations. Blending coming-of-age courage, found family warmth, whimsical folklore and a slow-burn, decades-spanning saga of loyalty and secrecy, this companion novel bridges the gap between old magic and new, revealing why Grandma always understood dragons better than anyone. Perfect for fans of classic children's fantasy, hidden magical creatures, guardianship tales, enchanted forests and heartfelt intergenerational storytelling.
