The Dragon and the Phoenix

 One day, they (the dragon and the phoenix) met on an island in the river.
 A shiny pebble lay on the sand.
 "It's beautiful."
 The dragon and the phoenix stayed on the island... ... watching the pearl.
 It was so bright, the Queen of Heaven saw it shine.
 "I want that pearl!" she said.
 That night, she sent a guard to steal it. (pp.10-11, 14-19)

 I read the book "The Dragon and the Phoenix" today.
 They find a very beautiful, shiny pearl, so they protect it.
 But, it is stolen by the queen of heaven, because it is so beautiful.
 Can they find and recover it?
 This story is easy to read and interesting, so I want you to read it.
