You explain the school lessons in good clear detail
I would like to see you cover a little less ground in a chapter and flesh out the scenes you do include with more dialogue. :-) Brooke

    Thanks once more. See what you mean, but dialogues are so difficult for me. Ine.
    Will think about it of course.

I am a care-giver for very young children and I am amazed at what they can learn from birth or even before. We should all be very aware of the example we are setting. The first words from the tiny little mouth may just be the words they heard from you.

To Robina1978,
A fictitious story about a dragon and his run in with a horse accompanied by his friend, Mara.
Robina, you have a tendancy to be repititious in your sentences or possibly could have several lines conbined, saying the same thing in shorter context.
Otherwise it was fine.

If Mareng and Mara are like human children I can tell you no.I don't know of any children that play together does so without any problems.Your story has good dialogue and very creative imagination>Blessings Rita

Just before they were called into school that afternoon, Mareng asked Mara if she would like to come with him after school.

"Ooh yes please, Mareng, sounds like fun to me. I should ask Mum if it is alright."

Mareng responded, (colons is not correct format)"m(M)y Mum phoned your Mum and she said it is fine with her."

(Is there a reason you put all the sentence without spaces? I put the spaces in to indicate a new paragraph. A new speaker means a new paragraph. A new action requires a new paragraph. If spaces are not there, it is hard for the reader to understand who is speaking. Other spots in the story have the same problem as I see it. I am wondering why you continue to put dialogue tag in front of the quotation marks? Is this something that I do not know about? It may not make a difference, but to me it looks a bit strange when it is done too often.)

I love the story.

And so the story of the small dragon continues with him having fun in school. The teacher seems very innovative with her teaching ideas. I think this will be a great
story for children...One Slight error I think in the line...
Has anybody an idea were we will go today?" ...should It not say where instead of the were? It is a great story! Blessings, Linda

Hi Ine . So cute this story about the experiences and the development of a little dragon and how he learns all kind of skills. The story is told very well and has a good flow that makes it a pleasure to read. Well done my friend. Liefs Fia
