Knights & Their Dragons: Stories about Facing The Dragons of Fear and Frustration

By Bob Peddicord

These stories were designed to help young people learn to cope with fears and frustrations. In these stories, Sir Stephen and Sir Henry were young knights and long lost brothers separated from each other at birth. They had to face fears and fight frustrations in order to meet little orphaned brother dragons and make them their friends.

Sir Stephen was naturally fearful and cautious. He had to build up his courage to overcome his fear. His brother, Sir Henry, was fearless, but he was challenged by frustration that burned within him. He had to cool that frustration so he could think of a plan to achieve his goals.

Both knights befriended little brother dragons that grew to become powerful helpers. The fearful dragon became "Protector Dragon" and protected the village sheep from packs of wolves. The frustrated dragon became "Drag-on Dragon" and pulled huge logs to help construct buildings in the village.

The knights had complimentary characteristics, and each of their tendencies became strengths in certain situations. Fearful Sir Stephen developed a plan when caution was needed, and bold Sir Henry was fearless when quick action was needed.
However, after the brothers and their dragon friends met, fearful and cautious Stephen had to learn that bold action was sometimes needed, and quick to action Henry had to learn to learn to think before he acted. Protector Dragon, who was afraid of his own fire, had to learn to control his fire to keep the village safe from a pack of wolves, Drag-on Dragon, who loved to help build log buildings, had to learn to control his temper when logs got stuck so he didn't burn the buildings down with his furious fire.

The nights and their dragon friends had great adventures together. As they worked together and learned from each other, they became a closely connected team in which they took turns being brave enough to face fears and bold enough to fight frustrations.
