Does he think they're real?


Middle-aged man approaches the reference desk...

Hi, I'm looking for books on dragons.

OK, Any particular type? Myth, folklore, picture books?

Uh, no. Information about dragons.

OK, So some sort of mythology.

No. I need to know their size, weight, physical description, where they live...?

Oh.

I would recommend "The Discovery of Dragons" by Graeme Base. Seriously. (And why won't Blogger allow me to use the underline tag in my comment?)

Check out Dr. Ernest Drake's Dragonology and Dragonology Handbook (complete with dragon skin samples!)
