Jagger the Friendly Dragon

In a land of colorful mountains, there lived a friendly dragon named Jagger. Jagger loved to fly high above the jagged peaks, where the air was fresh and the clouds danced like cotton candy.

One day, he noticed a little bird struggling to find a safe place to land. “Don’t worry!” Jagger called out. “I’ll help you!

With a swoosh of his wings, he created a soft landing spot on a smooth rock. The bird chirped happily, and together they explored the beautiful, jagged mountains.

Remember, even the sharpest edges can lead to the sweetest adventures!
