The Bears and the Dragon Race

"The Bears and the Dragon Race" illustrated & written by Addie for Grammie on Mother's Day.

Once there was a race in a deep dark forest and the dragon meeted the bear.  "Hey do you want to go by me when the race is done?" asked the dragon.  

The bear answered "Why yes!"

"But how does the race go?" asked the bear.

"Oh there are yellow boards you follow.  If you fall off then you can get back up because there are crocodiles in the water!"

The bear said "UH!"

"Don't worry," said the dragon, "I will hold your hand so you won't be scared."  

And so the race began!

And then they raced and raced and raced.  They raced as long as they could!  They just kept racing!

Then at the end, the one who got the trophy was the one who made it to the end.  The bear and the dragon won but the dragon raced faster.

And the bear said "Thank you!  Thank you!  Thank you for letting me go slower.  I didn't know that the slowest one would win!"

And so they both walked away with trophies.  The bears and dragons were friends forever!

THE END!
