ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- Tashi is a popular character in a range of little novels for newly confident readers, but this delightful picture book introduces him to slightly younger readers. Tashi has always heard tales about dragons, but no-one has ever met one. They bring the rains, and when one year the rains don't fall, Tashi sets out to discover why. A charming adventure to introduce one of the most enduring little characters of recent Australian children's books! Lindy
-----
No one had ever seen the dragon, but once a year it would send smoke and thunder down the mountain, and soon the rains would follow. Now the skies were always blue, the creeks were drying up and the people were hungry. What was happening up there? When Tashi reaches the dragon's golden palace, he meets an angry young dragon who is upset because his mother is under the spell of a demon sleep and he can't wake her up.
