no humans or no dragons. He was not happy with either picture.

So as often as possible Bob took human form and tried to convince people that some dragons were good. But you know how people are . When they know they are right you can’t talk to them. So Bob was not making any headway either with humans or dragons. Indeed some of the good dragons were afraid they would have to start killing humans just to defend themselves.

One day when Bob was in human form he saw an old lady who was pleading with everybody that passed by to stop and chop her wood.

“ And I thought you only gave out only one wish”. Exclaimed Bob

“Well we have all these wishes backed up because nobody is earning them. Bookkeeping wants us to dump as many as possible”. Our elf said looking very sad.

The elf , of course, gave him that time. So after a month of thinking Bob was ready and he wished the following three wishes.

1. That every dragon would have the ability to become invisible at will and take human form for as long as three weeks.

2. Any dragon that ate a human would lose the power to become invisi
