The Moonshine Dragon
Hadn’t Patrick closed his book before he went to bed? Maybe. But now it is laying open - and Patrick is no longer alone in his room…
When a tiny silver dragon is chased out of Patrick’s storybook by an equally tiny knight, all sorts of mayhem breaks loose! Soon moonshine magic has shrunk Patrick too, and he is forced to hole up inside his toy castle as the knight attacks the ‘fire worm’. Can Patrick defeat the knight and make it to morning?

The moon shone into Patrick's room. It turned the carpet silver. Even Patrick's jeans on the chair looked as if they were woven out of silver threads.
Who could sleep on a night like this? Patrick lay in his bed, stared out of the window and counted the stars.
Patrick had almost dropped off to sleep when he was startled by a soft rustling sound on the floor by his bed. He peered down to see what it was.
There was a book on the floor. Patrick had read the book earlier that day. It was about dragons and knights. Now it lay open on the carpet, even though Patrick was sure he had closed it.
Strange.
