My Father's Dragon by Ruth Stiles Gannett
Published Date: 1948
Genres: Children's fiction
Source: Gutenberg
Summary: Elmer Elevator (narrator's father as a boy) runs away with an old alley cat to rescue a flying baby dragon being exploited on a faraway island. With the help of two dozen pink lollipops, rubber bands, chewing gum, and a fine-toothed comb, Elmer disarms the fiercest of beasts on Wild Island.

I'm trying to get out of my reading funk by reading children's books. I didn't read many popular children's books as a kid, because I was a snotty reader who just wanted to go to the adult's library. It seems a great time to remedy the past. My Father's Dragon has an adorable cover and is in public domain, so I thought, "Why not?"
