Charlie is a boy with flaming red hair,

bright blue eyes and a laugh that floats

through the air.

 

Charlie is brave and ever so strong,

and he never gets scared, at least not for long.

 

It is Sunday morning and there is so much to do,

so he gets up to get dressed and put on his new shoes.

 

He opens the drawer and imagine his shock,

for there is a dragon curled up in his socks!

 

At first he was frightened because dragons are scary, they are grumpy when woken so it pays to

be wary.

 

Everyone knows that dragons are frightening;

they are always hungry and will gobble you up

fast as lightning!
