Darek and his dragon have escaped from Krad, a neighboring kingdom, after being held captive. But on their return home they find their village under the control of Zarnak, a wicked tyrant.

Darek wants to rescue his villagers, but he wants to plan a way to do it that will avoid war.

Fans of fantasy will enjoy this inventive tale of dragons and heroes while learning a powerful lesson about friendship and the destructive nature of hate.

It is our pleasure, our honor, our duty as citizens to present to you Duck for President. Here is a duck who began in a humble pond. Who worked his way to farmer. To governor. And now, perhaps, to the highest office in the land.
Some say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he is a duck.
We say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he will be the next president of the United States of America.
Thank you for your vote.
