The book is beautifully illustrated and filled with colorful images that bring the story to life. It is a story of acceptance, courage, and the power of friendship.

Présentation de l'éditeur

LilX Jt iiLU iwttK A SENTIMENTAL DRAGON CHAPTER I: THE ALARM Jehan de Reizet ran down the wide, stone steps leading from the perron to the court of his cousins house in the Faubourg St Honore, aware that the two lackeys watched him curiously from the open door. They had doubtless heard the Dukes voice through that silent house, where suavity and wit were more in harmony with its stately beauty than rancorous argument. The path of yellow light in which Reizet walked was dtii) denly blotted out as the great doors closed behind him. A lamp burned dimly under the arch leading to the street, and the uniformed concierge opened the iron gates emblazoned with the Petrinac Arms with a friendly smile, not bom of an expected tip, but sympathetic interest. It was midnight and the pavement was slimy with mud. A rim of moon hung in a watery sky above the line of mansat roofs, and the street, congested during the day by traffic, Wls ;now so deserted and silent, that the young mans footsteps !echoed with exaggerated sotmd. Reizet, immersed in tmpleasant thoughts, felt nevertheless the soothing influence of that profound peace which broods over Paris at such an hour.
