Dragon visits a little pond and tries to float like Dylan Duck, but it doesn’t go as planned.

Narrator: Male

Story Begins: 4:17

Floating Dragon Excerpt:

This place was quite far from Dragon’s home in the center of the forest. In fact, Dragon had never been to this pond before. They had decided to simply fly into the sky and land someplace new. Dragon really enjoyed exploring. You never knew what you would see or who you would meet. On this day, Dragon had landed near a cute little pond. It was a beautiful place near a lovely little farm, where various vegetables grew in tidy rows.

Just as Dragon was looking around, a little duck burst through the nearby bushes, quacking happily, heading straight for Dragon and the water. The duck was waddling so quickly it didn’t see Dragon at first, until it waddled into Dragon’s shadow. Then it paused and peered up, right at Dragon.
