It's so fun to follow the dragon school adventures of your children's story, Ine. Mareng is a likeable character and, I think you do a great job of presenting the interaction and learning that goes along with meeting other species. I'd really enjoy some of those dragon biscuits, too! Well done, my friend. Kind regards, Bev

Comment from Cumbrianlass
A great effort, Ine. I like the story of the little dragon. I'm sure kids would love it too. I found a couple of things that you might like to correct if you wish:
he could bath, - bathe.
Lunch break at home for Mareng and some other children. - Lunch bread was taken at home
animals, the were horses. - they were or perhaps, these were
So this afternoon - that afternoon (past tense).
Have a wonderful day. Hugs, Av.

Comment from mumsyone
You're right. The story is not exciting; however, it could be.
You've done too much telling (describing things) instead of showing (through dialogue or actions), what the kids and dragons are doing and learning. You can't hold kids' attention with description only; there has to be more.
You've also used shortcuts which don't work for kids' stories: Mareng: "my Mum phoned your Mum and she said it is fine with her." This shows me that you wanted to get the writing done quickly, without regard to whether it was interesting or not.
I'm not trying to be overly critical here, but if you can't take the time to write an exciting story, kids won't take time to read or listen to it, and parents won't be interested either.
I think your idea is great, and your writing is good. You just need to spend more time thinking it out.
Mum woke him up early every day so that he could bath (bathe), brush his teeth,
drawings of bigger four-legged animals, the (there or these?) were horses.
