The dragon who lives at the bottom of the hill is very lonely - whenever he laughs, he breathes fire and scares everyone away! Will he ever find someone to be his friend?
Even though he wouldn’t harm a fly, no one wants to be friends with the poor old dragon. He decides to go out to the village in disguise so that people won’t be scared of him. The trouble is if he laughs he breathes fire, and people run away screaming, until he realises he can use his supposed affliction to help people…
