Ruth Stiles Gannett's beloved tale of adventure and exploration, "My Father's Dragon" takes the reader on a trip to Wild Island, where the narrator's intrepid young father must navigate a maze of exotic animals - including a rhino, a lion and some hungry alligators - to rescue an imprisoned baby dragon.

At once hilarious and exciting, "My Father's Dragon" is one of the most honored and cherished children's books of the 20th century and illustrator Ruth Crisman Gannett (the author's stepmother) populates the book with a series of inventive and beautiful drawings of the young explorer's adventures.

This volume is presented in its original and unabridged format.
