The dragon is a legendary creature that features in stories from cultures all over the world, including Asia and Europe.
There are all kinds of different dragons! For example, some dragons are smaller, with no wings and horns for ears. Other dragons are larger and fire breathing (aka they breathe out flames!). These dragons often have scales, claws, and wings for flying!
In the earliest stories, dragons resemble giant snakes!
