How To Train Your Dragon meets The Indian in the Cupboard in this funny, heartfelt story of friendship, family and timeless adventure.

When would-be palaeontologist Mari finds a tiny dragon while out fossil hunting on a Welsh beach, she knows it's a discovery that could change science - and her life - forever.

Mari wants to make a scientific study of the baby reptile that will astound the world. But this dragon doesn't want to be studied, it wants to be free. And although it may only be pocket sized, it has a giant appetite for mischief...

A cracker of a new middle grade adventure . . . Seamless storytelling interwoven with fascinating science, and Gweeb is the most loveable dragon since Pete met Elliott. Perfect for reading aloud! * Piers Torday, author of The Lost Magician *
Wonderful storytelling, a very loveable dragon, some seriously nail-biting moments, and an important message about freedom. Also set in beautiful Wales! Hurray! Loved it. * Eloise Howe, author of Gaslight *
