Saint George being the patron saint of Catalonia, dragons naturally play an important role in its tradition, culture and also literature. This book is, for once, not about a blood-thirsty fantastical creature but rather a quite civil representative of the species. While the lady dragon plaguing a town seems a bit threatening at first, she in reality only seeks people’s help, as she is missing the identifying mark of all dragons: armour-like scales. This picture book reveals how, after a few less than successful attempts, the green lady is made happy thanks to the magical powers of the water in the village pond. The cheerful, somewhat hyper illustrations suit the lively character of the story very well. (4+)
