Product Description
Set in the Viking world of long boats, looting and grand adventure, The Goose Pimple Bay Sagas relate the hilarious tales of a noble family with a difference. Spike Carbuncle is sick of being second in command to his weedy brother. So, when Spike’s wife, Fangtrude, comes across a dragon’s egg, together they formulate a plan to get rid of Whiff Erik, once and for all. There’s just one hitch – dragon training isn’t as easy as it sounds. What do you do when your dragon is terrible at breathing fire and prefers eating onions to live goats?
