The kingdoms of Arbor with its lush forests, and Pomosa rich with farmland, have no love between them, and the children have taken to sneaking across the borders to thieve. If only they would share their produce. But the Kings decide to fight, instead... with dragons. But what kind of future will that bring?

"This stunning picture book is one for every child… eloquent and lyrical" Sunday Times "A powerful message about sharing and cooperation underpins this colourful, old-fashioned fable" Daily Mail "A gently satirical and gorgeously illustrated fable" New Statesman "McCaughrean is one of the greatest living children's authors."

Review

"This stunning picture book is one for every child… eloquent and lyrical" - Sunday Times

"A powerful message about sharing and cooperation underpins this colourful, old-fashioned fable" - Daily Mail

"A gently satirical and gorgeously illustrated fable" -- Amanda Craig - New Statesman

"This story carries a poignant message for modern times, beautifully packaged as a classic fairy tale. Children will understand that sharing what you have with others is far more enjoyable and productive than being at war. The intricate watercolour illustrations have much to explore, with the graceful dragons as the stars of the show" - BookTrust

"With its dramatic watercolour illustrations, this fable has much to say about our 21st-century world and the way in which leaders operate" -- Jill Bennett - Books for Keeps
