long ago, a shepherd reigned home, terrified.

I saw something terrible!

It's as big as four horses!

It has long sharp claws,
7
a long pointy tail, and shiny blue scales all over its body.
8
His son looked up from his book.
9
That sounds like a dragon, he said.
10
A dragon, yelled the wife.
11
A dragon.
12
said the shepherd.
13
That does not sound good.
14
The boy wasn't scared.
15
The next day, he set off up the hill to find the dragon.
16
Bye, don't worry.
17
He might be friendly, thought the boy.

The dragon was friendly, and he was thrilled to see the boy.

It's beautiful here, but it does get lonely.

He sat down and asked the dragon all kinds of questions.
22
The dragon told stories of long, long ago.
23
There were dangerous dragons everywhere.
24
And brave knights fought them to rescue Princess.

He's here!
33
Send George the Dragon Killer!
34
Who's there?
35

The boy rushed back to the dragon.
37
St. George the Dragon Killer wants to fight you,
38
gasped the boy And he has the longest spear I've ever seen But I don't like fighting

I'll just hide in my cave until he goes away Hey, said the dragon.
40
You can't, cried the boy.
41
Everyone wants a fight.
42
The dragon yarned.
43
I'm sure you'll think of something, he said.

46
villagers was telling George about the dangerous dragon He burned down five horses It's not true,

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
