In a quiet town nestled beside a river, people fear heavy rains, which they believe foretell the coming of a terrible dragon. One day, a beast emerges from its dark lair in the bowels of the earth and attacks the town. Enough is enough! Young Radegonde, a brave and inventive girl, decides to rid the town of its plague. She comes up with a plan to put an end to the monster once and for all. But turn the book over and upside down, and it's the dragon’s turn to speak and tell her side of the story!
