The Princess and the Dragon
Once there was a Princess who didn't behave like a princess.
The King and Queen were shocked by her frightful table manners.
Her tangled hair and ragged clothes made her Nanny cry.
Don't touch me! I'm Perfect.
The Cook, try as he might, could never serve a meal the Princess liked.
Spaghetti a la meatballs and chocolate peanut butter cake.
Throw it to the Swine.
No one ever saw her smile, except when she played a mean trick on the old Knight.
Eat up your nice worm.
All the Mothers and Fathers in the kingdom warned their children not to be like her.
Don't act like her.
She's a disgrace.
Never, never!
No! No! No!
Isn't she terrible!
One day, a dragon was seen moving into a cave in the mountain.
The Mothers and Fathers were frightened and ran to the King and Queen for help.
It's green! It's big! It's hungry! Help!
The King and Queen were worried too.
They knew that dragons like to kidnap princesses.
It's come for our little dear.
Oh me!
But most upset of all was the old Knight, as it was his job to protect the royal child.
Oh my!
This news gave the Princess a mean idea.
Heh, heh.
Wouldn't it be jolly to watch the old Knight fight a dragon?
She would let the monster capture her.
That night, while everyone was asleep, the Princess tiptoed out and made her way up to the terrible creature's cave.
But inside she found a Dragon daintily playing a piano.
The Dragon was not at all what the Princess expected.
The Dragon was equally surprised.
I'm the Princess.
Capture me!
I wouldn't dream of it.
The Princess thought dragons were fierce.
But this Dragon wasn't fierce at all.
Don't dragons roar loudly, chase knights and kidnap princesses?
The others do.
I don't like to.
The Dragon thought princesses were gentle.
But this Princess wasn't gentle at all.
Don't you take ballet, read good books, and wear lovely gowns?
Not me. I hate it!
The Princess knew she could be a better dragon than the Dragon.
I'd shake mountains with my roar.
The Dragon knew it could be a better prince than the Princess.
I'd study the violin.
Suddenly, they both had an idea.
