Reader Description

Komodo dragons are the world's biggest lizards and just as fierce as the dragons you read about in story books. There are three thousand of these lizards living on Komodo, and they really are the rulers of the island.

After you have completed the Reader

Write a list of the features of a Komodo dragon such as smell, sharp teeth, and the noises they make. Now choose a word that describes each feature. Use these words to write a poem about the dragon.
