Grisha the dragon is born in the Black Forest in 1803, the last year any dragon was born, and while young he was trapped by the emperor's sorcerer, and turned into a teapot, which was frustrating but kept him alive while magic and other dragons were disappearing--until one day he meets Maggie, a poet's daughter, and the two of them set out to discover what happened to all the other dragons.

Read a few chapters and bailed. It was too unbearably whimsical and I could not believe in a dragon who lived on acorns. Also, how (and why) would the emperor carry around a teapot in his pocket? Why did no one ever put tea in the pot? Oh, the mysteries.
A cute story for younger readers. The start is a little slow. The plot is interesting but it's a little sad. Nice illustrations.
