Good Job! I'm sure you did no harm in the insertion of "Puff The Magic Dragon" You were very creative in doing so, making your story humerous and entertaining. Good luck.

Hi Carol, I love this fantasy story you have written based on the song "Puff the magic Dragon." I enjoyed reading it and I'm sure children would love it too. You have just given Puff a wonderful life! Nice job.

I loved the orignal song, love the story, and found it entertaining and magical.
Kids would love to hear it read aloud.
Your words are easy to follow, with no suggestions for improvement.
Very very well done.

Hullo Carol ....

I really enjoyed this story and remember well, the song about which you have written. Living in the land of make-believe is something that people of all ages can enjoy and of such things are writers born!
There are just two small changes to suggest ...

* You have - old man's pant leg ... I think this would be better as - old man's trouser leg ....
* You have - couldn't see where the voice was ... I think this should be - see where the voice was coming from ...

Thank you for sharing this with us and, as it is a Contest entry, I wish you well.
With love from ..... Nanette Mary.
