**** BITES -- "Sir Frederick the Dragon" by Pamela Hanks

From time to time, we'll post what we call a BITE ("like a normal episode, only shorter!"). We always hope that the stories you listen to on The Apple Seed will spark memories and thoughts that you can share with the ones you love -- perhaps even the people with whom you listen to the show. In a BITE, we'll listen to a single story -- one that we love -- and invite friends to share memories and thoughts that occur to them as they listen to it. On today's BITE, we chat with Sadie Anderson about the Pamela Hanks story "Sir Frederick the Dragon,' about a dragon who exhibits character traits that Sadie thinks hit a little close to home. Things come out okay in the end for the dragon; you knew they would, right? We're pretty sure things will turn out okay for Sadie too, in spite of her competitive streak. You're sure to enjoy today's BITE!
