Description

Kenny Rabbit faces a dilemma when his dragon friend, Grahame, is targeted by the villagers of Roundbrook who mistakenly believe he is a threat. The villagers insist on calling George, a retired knight and dragon slayer, out of retirement to deal with Grahame. As tensions escalate, Kenny works to prevent a deadly battle between his two friends, Grahame and George, by orchestrating a theatrical showdown inspired by the legendary battle between St. George and the dragon. Tony DiTerlizzi's retelling of Kenneth Grahame’s classic story infuses chivalry and showmanship into a fun-filled, lighthearted romp.
