Alfie is just an ordinary little boy-this is, until he bites into a ham and cheese sandwich with mustard so spicy that it turns him into a fire-breathing dragon! Soon, he befriends another dragon named Marty, who shows him that dragons lead incredibly busy lives. For starters, they terrorize princesses, battle knights, and guard treasure, but did you know that they are also excellent pizza chefs? Or that they rescue rocket ships stranded in outer space? Or that they are responsible for every warm bath that's ever been taken before bedtime? And all they ask in return is a few fluffy marshmallows-for there's nothing in the whole wide world that a dragon loves better than marshmallows. So, if you've ever wondered what a day in the life of a dragon is like, spend some time with Marty and Alfie and find out why a dragon's work is never done!
