Dragon’s Surprise Visitors Excerpt:

Dragon blinked in surprise, then peered out of the entrance of the cave, wondering who would be out in the storm. Usually, humans were not this deep in the forest when there was a storm.

There were three kids outside, all of whom Dragon recognized from social gatherings in the Ahway Island town but didn’t know well. Their names were JJ, Christian, and Marie. They were on bicycles and were soaking wet. They must have been out riding their bikes when the storm began, Dragon thought.
