Summary:

Dragons of Blueland: Boris, the baby dragon, is excited to be heading home to Blueland and looks forward to reuniting with his family. Elmer must come once again to the aid of his flying baby dragon when humans discover its retreat and begin to hunt it.
Elmer and the dragon: A stand-alone sequel to My Father's Dragon, in which Elmer Elevator and flying baby dragon Boris's island hopping adventures continue when they help the king of the canaries find treasure.
My father's dragon: When Elmer Elevator tells a stray cat about his dream of being able to fly, he learns of a captive dragon on Wild Island. The dragon has been forced by the jungle residents to serve as their shuttle across a wide river— and anyone who rescues the dragon from its cruel captors might be entitled to a free ride. Elmer needs no further encouragement to stow away aboard a ship to the island, where he matches wits with hungry tigers, an irate gorilla, cranky crocodiles, and other moody creatures.
Overview: The classic fantasy trilogy of Elmer Elevator and the flying baby dragon has delighted children and their parents for generations. Now, on the occasion of their fiftieth anniversary, Random House is proud to bring the three timeless tales together in one beautiful commemorative edition, complete with the original delightful illustrations.
