Butterfingers - Softcover

"This story is absolutely ideal for those readers who are developing reading stamina and moving on to full chapter books, but there is huge visual support offered in the wonderful monochrome illustrations on most pages" (The School Librarian)

"It is the sort of story that every child should have read to them" (Pie Corbett Junior Education)

Can he defeat the dragon and get the girl? Or will he let the chance to become a hero slip through his butterfingers? Join our unlikely hero and his animal friends on their daring quest across the plain, through the woods and into the mountains to find out . . .
