I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

My Father's Dragon is a book from the 1940s that has been reprinted and still as loved today by all accounts as it was years ago. This is the first time I've ever come across it and read it and it was really enjoyable!
The main character us Elmer. Elmer rescues an alley cat and nurses her for weeks. After hearing Elmers wish to be able to fly, the cat informs Elmer about a baby dragon that has been captured on an island and being held against its will. Elmer sneaks out of the house one night on a mission to rescue the baby dragon. Elmer comes across many different types of animals throughout this book who want to hurt or eat him.
This book was a fun and gripping read that will fascinate and thrill children reading or listening to it. The language in places is a little dated which is to be expected with its age but this can be changed by the adult if reading it outloud to the child and can expand children's knowledge and understanding too.
