Dragons at Crumbling Castle: And Other Stories
Terry Pratchett
Dragons have invaded Crumbling Castle, and all of King Arthur’s knights are either on holiday or visiting their grannies. It’s a disaster!
Luckily, there’s a spare suit of armour and a very small boy called Ralph who’s willing to fill it. Together with Fortnight the Friday knight and Fossfiddle the wizard, Ralph sets out to defeat the fearsome fire-breathers.
But there’s a teeny weeny surprise in store . . .
Fourteen fantastically funny stories from master storyteller Sir Terry Pratchett, full of time travel and tortoises, monsters and mayhem!
‘So funny I dropped my spoon laughing!’ – King Arthur

The book made me intrigued and imaginative. I like Mr Christmas because when Mr Christmas went to work in the garden he wrote "Merry Christmas"out of flowers and even though the gardener was impressed Mr Christmas did not get the job. Yes I would recommend this book because they would enjoy it too.

I found this book a bit difficult to understand. There are some pictures in it but I am not very keen on them. I would not recommend this book.

Some of the stories were quite lengthy and after a while I got quite bored of them. Some of the others were really good. My favourite was When Father Christmas goes to the zoo. I would recommend this to people who are good readers.
