Zachary Hamby

This 12-page script-story humorously adapts the medieval legend of St. George, the world's most famous dragon-slayer.When a fire-breathing dragon descends upon the city of Selene, it demands the sacrifice of the kingdom's children and the king's beloved daughter, the princess Cleo. All seems lost—that is, until the heroic knight, George, arrives to save the day!
