The theme of kindness runs through this collection of stories. Kenneth Grahame's Reluctant Dragon is more interested in writing poetry than being fierce; in 'The Land of the Blue Flower' by Frances Hodgson Burnett, a young king encourages his citizens to plant flowers; and the title story celebrates the unbreakable bond between a little boy and his favourite toy animal. Published as a beautiful, cloth-bound hardback with classic illustrations throughout.
