"The Reluctant Dragon" by Kenneth Grahame tells the story of a gentle, poetry-loving dragon who befriends a young boy. When the villagers learn of the dragon's existence, they call upon St. George, the famous dragon slayer, to kill him. The boy, knowing the dragon's peaceful nature, arranges a meeting between the dragon and St. George. Instead of fighting, they stage a mock battle to satisfy the villagers' expectations.
