Edward Baker. Julie Extract from Zaugg by Julia Donaldson Madam Dragon ran a school many moons ago. She taught young dragons all the things that dragons need to know. Zaugg, the biggest dragon was the Keenest one by far. He tried his hardest every day to win a Golden Star. All the dragons in year one were learning how to fly high, said Madam Dragon, way up in the sky. Now the Children show him you can practise on her own and you'll all be expert fliers By the time you're fully grown, Zaugg went off to practise, flying fast and free. He soared and swooped and loop the loop, then crashed into a tree. Just then a little girl came by. Oh, please don't cry, she said. Perhaps you'd like a nice sticky plaster for your head. What a good idea, said Zog. Then up and off, he flew his plaster gleaming pink Lee as he zigzagged through the blue. A year went by and in near to the dragons. Learned too raw, Moore said. Madam Dragon Loader, I implore now that you've been shown, you can practise on her own and you'll all be champion Royals by the time you're fully grown. Zaugg went off to practise. He roared with fearsome force. He kept it up for hours on end. But then his throat grew horse. Just then the girl came by again. She said, What rotten luck. Perhaps you'd like a nice, soothing peppermint to suck. What a good idea, said Zogg, than up and off. He flew and breathing fumes of peppermint. He zigzagged through the blue.
