  Speaker 1: the highest peak lived a fearsome dragon. Every Tuesday, a
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: terrible sound echoed down into the valley. Rumbull grumble, ruhar.

• 1:02
  Speaker 1: knights in the land. The knights marched out in their
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: shiny armor clank clank clank. But when they heard the

• 1:15
  Speaker 1: fast as they could. They were terrified. Princess Clara watched

  Speaker 1: them run. She crossed her arms. If the knights won't
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: see what is wrong, I will go myself, she decided.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: She put on her sturdy boots, grabbed her yellow backpack
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: and started to hike up, up, up. She went past

  Speaker 1: the whispering woods, over the bubbly brook. She climbed until
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: she reached the dark, smoky cave at the top of
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: the mountain. Ruhar, sniffle. Clara stopped. Wait a minute, she
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: thought that didn't sound like an angry roar. That sounded
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: like a cry. Clara peeked inside the cave. There, curled
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: into a giant green ball, was the dragon. But he
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: wasn't breathing fire. He was crying. Giant bowling ball sized
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: tears were rolling down his scaly cheeks. PLoP, PLoP, splash.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Excuse me, Clara said, softly, stepping into the light. The
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: dragon jumped. Don't hurt me with your pointy swords, he whimpered,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: hiding his face under his giant tail. I don't have
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: a sword, Clara smiled. I am Princess Clara. Why are
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you crying? The dragon sniffled. My name is Barnaby. I
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: was trying to pick some mountain berries and my wing
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: got completely tangled in these giant prickly thorn bushes. It
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: hurts and I can't fly. Clara looked closely. It was true,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: thorny vines were wrapped tightly around Barnaby's left wing. The
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: poor dragon wasn't angry at all, he was just stuck
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: and scared. Don't worry, Barnaby, I can help, Clara said gently.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: She opened her yellow backpack. She took out her safety clippers,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: very carefully, talking to the dragon in a soothing voice
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: to keep him calm, Clara began to cut the vines. Snip, snap, snip.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: It took a long time, but finally the last vine
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: fell away. Clara placed three extra large band aids over
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: the dragon's scratches and fed him her crunchy apple slices.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Barnaby stretched his massive wings. They were free. He was
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: so happy that he gave Clara a gentle, smoky hug.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Thank you, brave Princess, Barnaby rumbled happily. How can I
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: ever repay you? Well, Clara grinned. It is a very
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: long walk down the mountain. That afternoon, the King and
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: the knights looked up at the sky in shock. Flying
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: over the castle was the giant green Dragon, and sitting
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: comfortably on his back, waving to the crowd, was Princess Clara.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: From that day on Oakhaven, never feared the mountain again,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: and everyone knew that the bravest person in the kingdom
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: wasn't the one with the biggest sword, but the princess
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: with the kindest heart.
