A beloved Newbery Honor book comes to life in this charming tale about a resourceful boy named Elmer. Join him as he sets off on a daring adventure to rescue a baby dragon held captive by the ferocious animals of Wild Island. With pluck and ingenuity, Elmer makes his way to the island, outwits the wild animals, and saves Boris, the baby dragon. But can they find their way back home? They travel over the ocean, get lost in a storm, and discover a magical island. Finally, the dauntless duo safely returns home! Enchantment Theatre brings Elmer’s marvelous quest to the stage using puppets, masks, magical scenic effects, and original music. His adventure reminds us that we are never too young to make a difference. His adventure reminds us that we are never too young to make a difference.
