One day, Sir Reginald walked in the forest. He heard a loud sound. ROAR! Reginald was a bit scared, but he kept walking. He saw a big, green dragon! The dragon looked sad.
"Hello," said Sir Reginald. "Are you okay?"
The dragon looked down at Sir Reginald. "I lost my favorite toy," said the dragon. "Now I am sad."
Sir Reginald wanted to help. "I can help you find it!" he said. So, Sir Reginald and the dragon looked for the toy. They looked behind trees and under rocks. After a while, they found it! It was a little, red ball.
