The Egg by M P Robertson
George knew something wasn't right when he found more than he had bargained for under his mother's favourite chicken...George takes the enormous egg inside and puts it in his room. There he reads stories to it until finally the egg begins to rumble and out pops a baby dragon. 'Mummy' it says. George takes it upon himself to teach the hatchling 'dragony' ways, including How to Defeat a Knight and Fire and How to Breathe it, until one night the dragon flies away to find its own kind. A touching tale full of warmth and humour, brought to life by M. P. Robertson's extraordinary watercolour illustrations.
"It's a story of love, humour and magic, suupported by wonderful illustrations that are somehow magical and real at the same time" Wendy Cooling in Literacy & Learning
M.P. Robertson studied Graphic Design at Kingston University. A freelance illustrator since 1988, he specialises in children's books.
