Sam Dragon is always up to mischief, and he will not do as he is told. Soon his naughtiness will get him into real trouble, and he'll need to make his own way in a big, wide, dragon-fearing world. Luckily, he won't be all alone. He will make the unlikeliest of friends, and together they will triumph against the odds. After all, sometimes even a dragon deserves a little bit of happily ever after. A perfect bedtime book, Sam Dragon has something for all ages. There are maidens, knights (well, one knight), bad puns, wolves - even a cheeky squirrel. If you like dragons and you like mischief, and you don't mind a tiny bit of ethical metaphysics, then you'll love this story. In this edition you will find five beautiful illustrations including Sam, Matilda and Sir Roderick. No actual wolves were harmed (or eaten) in the making of this book.

Danny Wong is brilliant, handsome, and ready to love. He has one big problem: at nearly thirty, he is still deeply in the closet due to his ultra-traditional mother who wants him to find a nice Chinese girl to marry. But Danny has a crush on the hunky, buff security guard, Dave, who patrols the building on MIT's campus where he is working on his PhD. One night when Danny is mugged leaving the building, Dave comes to his rescue...sort of...and their paths collide. The attraction is mutual and hot as wildfire. But Dave has baggage of his own that may stop him from ever loving again, especially when a great darkness in his past rears up to try and destroy him. At once a tale of sexual awakening and first love, Danny’s Dragon explores the inner strength needed to overcome obstacles, inner and outer, toward being with one's soulmate.
