Danny is a really cool friend to have. I think the town people should be kind to him all of the time.

Danny is the best character in this book. I would recommend it to someone else. They found a new use for Mr Marvo's magic sticks. They made Danny a den with them and there was a sign saying 'Danny' in the woods.

This was a fun book. I got it as my reading book from school and liked it so my mum brought me my own one. I liked the book because everyone thought Danny was kind Danny is the dragon in the story. Danny always helped the villagers he was a nice Dragon.
