"In the Rock Candy Mountains, through deep dark chocolate caves..." there lives a special dragon named Denton. Denton is known for his dazzling smile, but something is wrong, Denton's smile is gone. Denton the Dragon and the tale of Tear River tells a whimsical story of a dragon, his toothache and the river of tears that comes when a dragon forgets to brush his teeth after every meal. An original story by Robert Westall, illustrated in full colour by Bonnie Lemaire.
