It is a fictional book because there were no dragon and dragons do not exist in this world. My favourite character was toby, he has The dragon in his backpack that was why he was my favourite however It was so interesting and very fun to read but I just think that it could use some colours in it.

This book was really funny because a boy brought his dragon to school and it didn’t work out well! It was exciting seeing what the dragon would do next.

My favourite character was the mini dragon because he's really mischievous and he's tiny so it is easy for him to go around unnoticed.

I thought the book was really good and maybe one of the best I've read. It was non-fiction and my favourite character was pan the mini dragon. It interested me because I like stuff like dinosaurs and dragons. I would recommend it to people who enjoy action and adventure books and dragons

When I started reading the book I thought that Eric was selling his dragon to Toby but now after reading the book I realised its a book about rescuing the dragon from naughty Toby.

My favourite character was the dragon because he had magic
Like it can gobble your homework,
or set fire to your school and vanish
without a trace.

The best part of the story is that Eric did get the detention at the end

I recommend this book to my self because I love dragons.

My favourite characters were Eric and Pan, who is a mini dragon. I liked Pan because he was very funny and Eric is great because he never gave up on rescuing Pan.

I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys adventure stories.

I like the dragon being a mini dragon and can hide in the backpack. I wish I could put my pet Cat in my school bag!

This was a hilarious book.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes funny books or if they need a bit of fun.
The best character in the book was the mini dragon called Pan because he was very funny and quite often tried convincing Eric to take him to School.

i like it because it has a dragon in it . i love dragons!

This book is about Eric who finds a dragon in his backpack, called Pan. Eric takes him to school, and gets into trouble when the teacher hears a roar. Eric takes him to school to 'show and tell'.
The dragon was delivered to the wrong person. this book is fiction and a good story.
Pan was my favourite, because he's a dragon.
I would recommend this book to 9-12 old boys and girls.

Adventures in all sorts of ways

I liked this book because pan the mini-dragon fired Eric's old school

11 Aug 2020

I enjoyed this book as it was very fun to read. I liked the bit when the backpacks were swapped with Toby and he realised he didn’t have the dragon and the teacher got mad that he didn’t have any thing interesting. It is perfect for people who love funny stories.

It was really good for me

I thought Pan was a funny character. He wanted to go to school with Eric but ended up at the wrong school and had to be rescued. I would recommend this book to everyone else.

04 Aug 2020

Pan is so funny, he is always getting into trouble.

03 Aug 2020

My favourite character was Eric.
I would recommend this book to someone who likes dragons.

26 Jul 2020

It’s about a dragon who can talk, who was stolen by a boy called Toby from Eric’s backpack, because they have the same one! Oops!

This book was an amazing book and it was great for children. I liked how Tom Nicoll used his way of writing and the book-cover made me read it. It was a spectacular fictional story of a boy sneaking out of the bathroom and saving a Mini-Dragon. He made one of the character, be the reader, if another person would be saying it to you, you would be "Eric."
I would recommend this book to someone else because it was a FANTASTIC story.
He made this story a funny story too, by making a school uniform, be a party-form!
A fabulous fictional story that will make children encouraged to*read.

I love this book. Because there was a lot of adventure. They had to sneak out of the detention to get a dragon. They had to go to another school to rescue the Dragon.
