El dragón del mar de caramelo: la ofrenda de un rey al dragón hace que en Plurimiregia esté vacante siempre este puesto hasta que Billy acepta el trabajo. El dragón y la mantícora: aunque es rey, a Leonardo la lectura de un libro prohibido le traera mas de un susto. El dragon domesticado: domesticar un dragon no es suficiente, hay que ser astuto con un alcalde avaricioso. El dragon de fuego: si hay un dragon de por medio, hasta un porquero puede casarse con una princesa. El dragon morado: que en Rotundia las cosas sean al reves se debe a un giro de rotacion invertido; solo la hazaña para rescatar a la princesa del dragon trastoco el orden anterior. El dragon de hielo: no le conviene a un dragon del Polo Norte acercarse a una hoguera. La isla de los nueve remolinos: la astucia y el calculo pueden romper un encantamiento. Edmundo y el basilisco: no hay manera de que los mayores crean a los pequeños, aunque estos hayan salvado a toda una ciudad de un dragon. La invasion de dragones: solo con el cambio climatologico se puede acabar con una plaga de dragones. El ultimo dragon: nos hemos empeñado en que los dragones son terribles, cuando en realidad lo unico que necesitan es un poco de cariño.
