Can a dragon get lonely? You bet, specially if they cannot see the little creatures that keep him company with their song and suddenly, he can no longer hear them. What is a dragon to do? This tale is about such dragon in the quest of his beloved friends and the journey he undertakes to find them. This is a fractured fairy tale with delightful characters for children ages 8 to 12 and their parents. It is not always easy to wear glasses in a society where "being perfect" is admired and imperfection is criticized. It is seen as a weakness and even the super heroes only wear glasses as a disguise and an excuse to act meek and cowardly. As a visually impaired person having felt the scorn and margination in society, I decided that children need a hero to look up to that also wore glasses. Even strong, scary dragons can have visual problems. I hope this little story will boost children's self esteem and see themselves as heroes.
