| Summary | "My Father's Dragon" by Ruth Stiles Gannett is a children's novel written in the late 1940s. The book tells the enchanting tale of a young boy named Elmer Elevator, who embarks on an adventurous journey to rescue a baby dragon from the treacherous Wild Island. With its whimsical storytelling and charming illustrations by Ruth Chrisman Gannett, the narrative explores themes of courage, friendship, and resourcefulness. In the story, young Elmer, feeling mistreated at home, learns from a friendly alley cat about a baby dragon held captive by various wild animals on Wild Island. Determined to help the dragon, Elmer secretly gathers supplies and stows away on a ship to the island. Throughout his adventure, he encounters various creatures—like tigers, a rhinoceros, a lion, and a gorilla—using his wits to navigate challenges and outsmart them. Ultimately, with a bit of creativity and determination, he frees the dragon and flies off together, delighting in the thrill of friendship and the joy of rescue.
