Lovely that the clever girl dragon actually sounded a lot like what Ruth said to Naomi in the book of Ruth. <br /><br />I think you nail it with these older books Jeanne, when you talk about "subtlety". We do have intertwining of fact and fiction with modern publishers (US publishers Sylvan Dell actually do this very well, I believe).
