The story is about Roger, the turtle, and Padraig, the dragon, who are best friends. They decide to spend the night out in the woods together but end up being very afraid of every sound they hear. They do eventually overcome their fear to save a baby "leopard". The story is written in a very unique manner that is incredibly fun to read.
The very last page of the book (glued to the back cover) is also something very nice - it is a Bible verse (Deuteronomy 31:6; of which this book is based off) along with some discussion starters. Nice addition!
We would definately recommend this book to others.
Have a wonderfully blessed day!
