The Snow Dragon's tiny white hatchling, whose very first sneeze was made of fire.
Mmm. Ah... ah... ah-CHOO!
Who is the baby dragon?
The baby dragon is the Snow Dragon’s hatchling. It has a tiny white head, two tiny horns and a twitchy nose.
Where did the baby dragon come from?
The baby dragon began as a small silver egg, covered in frost. When Vela warmed it with her low lantern, a little light began to glow inside, like a heartbeat you could see.
Then the Crow stole the egg and flew off into the blizzard. Vela and the Snow Dragon followed its tiny glow through the snow.
What was the baby dragon’s first sneeze?
Right in the Crow’s claws, the egg began to crack. Ah… ah… AH… CHOO!
The baby dragon’s very first sneeze was a puff of fire, and it singed the Crow’s tail. Vela caught the baby before it could fall, and gave it back to its mother.
What is the baby dragon like?
The baby dragon is tiny, sleepy, and sweet. It likes to curl up beside its mother.
