Dragons are magnificent creatures, albeit mythical in nature we can’t help but be mesmerised by them. Dragons are loved by adults and kids alike, so today we bring you an absolutely beautiful workbook full of dragon tales and activities that your kids are sure to love. The book is 19 pages long and full of gorgeous Dragon Ark illustrations to go along with the activities. Let’s jump right in and take a look at the worksheets, shall we?
