Deep in the mountains lived a dragon. Every hundred years he wakes up. He is very hungry. “I want some breakfast,” he said.
He went down the mountain to the village. He saw a boy. ‘Yum, a boy for breakfast!’ ‘Don’t eat me!’ said Alfred. ‘I will give you some food.’
Alfred took the dragon to his house. He ate three plates of chicken and rice. “I am still hungry,” said the dragon.
Alfred gave the dragon more food. He ate five bags of noodles and ten sausages. He was still hungry!
They went over to the restaurant. The dragon ate twenty meatballs and fifty fish balls with twelve bags of sticky rice.
Then he ate six puddings and a cake. He was still hungry!
They went to the store. The dragon ate all the fruit and vegetables: mangoes and cabbage, tomatoes, mushrooms, and beans.
He was still a little hungry! Alfred looked in his pocket. There was a piece of candy. He gave the sweet to the dragon.
The dragon exploded!
‘Hooray!’ shouted Alfred. ‘The dragon is gone! No more boys for breakfast!’
