Why? To raise awareness and funds towards research.
​
What? The story is about My Dragon, that I have met as a child and keeps on interfering with my life. The struggles, but also the good times. Fantasy.

TOP 10
Stories I'm kinda in love with ;-)
01
The Dark Tower (1-8)
I am currently reading the books of Stephen King (Dutch). The adventures of Roland, Eddie, Susannah and Jake in a parallel fantasy world.
​
​
02
The Phantom Of The Opera
The original story 'Le fantôme de l'Opéra' by Gaston Leroux has been one of my favorite (love & horror) stories since I was a little child. Of course the play by Andrew Lloyd Webber has awoken my imagination...
​
03
The Little Prince
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's best known work : Le Petit Prince. I love the story, especially all the wisdom that we can teach childres (young adults) through the book.
​
​
04
The Lord of the Rings
I read Tolkien's books when I was only 16 years old. I like them more than the movie...!
​
​
05
The Little Mermaid
Like a lot of girls of my age - I'm in love with the story of Ariël and her prince Eric. Longing to be with your loved one - but not being able to. Trying to get to him no matter what : that's true love!
​
​
06
Harry Potter
Like a lot of people, I read the books of J.K Rowling when I was a little bit older. No child anymore - but not an adult either. I love Harry's world with all the beautiful mystery surrounding it.
​
​
07
Alone in the world
Hector Malot wrote the story about a young boy, that is raised by different people... He feels all alone, and is looking for a (his) family.
​
08
The BFG
The Friendly Giant, created by Roald Dahl, has been a story that both frightened me (as a child) and has triggered my imagination. The fantasy world - world of dreams & sleep - created in a fantastic way.
​
​
09
The Secret Garden
Francess Burnett creates a secret world, where the main character (Mary Lennox) may escape from reality. After the death of her parents at an early age, she moves to a different village, where she will eventually find adventure and even love.
