Quest for a Friend

By Judy Hayman and Caroline Wolfe-Murray

“Everyone knows dragons don’t exist...”
Along with their new cave in the Scottish Highlands, young dragons Emily and Tom have found a kindly protector in the mountain giant Ben McIlwhinnie. But Emily still longs for a friend. Her search brings Desmond, a wild and colourful traveller, who takes the family on an adventurous journey.
Along the way Emily gets her wish, Tom gets a fright and finds a hero, and there are plenty of surprises in store for all the family. (Whoever expected elephants...?)
This is the second of the Dragon Tales Chronicles.

Judy Hayman

Judy Hayman lives with her husband Peter on the edge of the Lammermuir Hills in East Lothian, Scotland, where there is a wonderful view and plenty of wildlife, but no dragons, as far as she knows. At various times in her past life she has taught English in a big comprehensive school; written plays, directed and occasionally acted for amateur theatre companies; been a Parliamentary candidate for both Westminster and the Scottish Parliament; and a Mum. Sometimes all at once. Now preventing the Lammermuirs from taking over her garden, being a Gran, writing more Dragon Tales and visiting schools to talk about them takes up a lot of her time.
