A clever boy must save his beloved dragon’s family in this timeless story 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

Elmer Elevator is safe and sound at home in Evergreen Park while Boris is heading to Blueland, where he’ll reunite with his family. There’s just one problem: hunters have trapped Boris’s family and plan to capture and sell them to zoos all over the world! When Boris discovers the hunters’ plan, he knows exactly who to go to for help—Elmer, whose creative plans and schemes always save the day. With time ticking away and the hunters ready to pounce, will Elmer be able to rescue the dragons of Blueland?

First published in 1951, The Dragons of Blueland has delighted generations of young readers. It is classic storytelling at its finest.

Critic reviews

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
