Fairy Tales #10
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Lion and the Mouse," a 1951 Ziff-Davis gem, a young boy named David flees an abusive home and stumbles upon the fearsome fire-breathing dragon Grundlesnitz—only to discover the creature is far more interested in selling toasted-cheese sandwiches than devouring him. With a clever twist on the classic fable, this whimsical tale unfolds in a world where even dragons can have a side hustle, all drawn with sharp, expressive detail by Dave Berg (as Davy Berg).
In a quiet corner of a forgotten forest, a lonely boy named David finds more than just shelter when he stumbles upon Grundlesnitz, the so-called fearsome fire-breathing dragon. What begins as a chance encounter quickly turns into an unlikely partnership when the dragon and David team up to run a roadside stand selling toasted-cheese sandwiches. Penciled and inked with playful precision by Dave Berg, this whimsical tale blends gentle humor and quiet courage in a story where kindness burns brighter than fire.
