Impatient tapping that was amplified in the echo of the cave.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abDo you think any of them will come today?\u00bb, she asked.<\/p>\n<p>She received only a snort in reply. The dragon couldn&#8217;t speak. Sure, it was a dragon. But that didn&#8217;t matter to the princess. Her concern was quite another: it had been months since any knight had come to her rescue.\u00a0The lambs were no longer enough to satisfy the dragon&#8217;s hunger. And the princess was afraid.<\/p>\n<p>A few days ago, she could no longer remember how many, the princess had heard a metallic sound outside the cave, believing that, at last, her \u00a0long-awaited knight had arrived to rescue her. The dragon sat up, quickly. It lurked and prepared to spit its deadly flare.<\/p>\n<p>But nothing happened. The noise had been caused by the wind stirring up the mountain of helmets and armor that belonged to the many knights devoured by the dragon. Its fire was extinguished and two light wisps of smoke escaped from its nostrils.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abDon&#8217;t lose hope, maybe one will appear tomorrow\u00bb, thought the princess.<\/p>\n<p>Day by day time was increasing. And with it, the dragon&#8217;s hunger increased. When he felt he was about to faint, he chewed on the old bones that piled up at the bottom of the cave. But the princess knew that they would not last long and shuddered with fear at the thought of her fate.<\/p>\n<p>On another occasion, only a few days after the last knight who tried, unsuccessfully, to rescue the princess had arrived, they had heard hoofbeats of a horse approaching, galloping, into the cave. It was indeed a horse. But no knight was riding on it. It was saddled and was dressed in a coat of mail with the colors and coats of arms of the last rider that the dragon devoured.<\/p>\n<p>The princess gently lured the horse and guided it -poor small animal- into the dragon&#8217;s hungry jaws.\u00a0That would be enough for now, but&#8230; how long would it survive?<\/p>\n<p>The princess was worried. It had been months since any knight had come to her rescue and her beloved dragon was nothing but skin and bone.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abNothing I can do, dear dragon, to keep you from starving to death\u00bb.<\/p>\n<h2>Audio story based on a micro story by Diego Sa\u00f1udo<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The princess and the dragon is an audio story that <\/span><b>has its origin in a short story by Spanish journalist and writer Diego Sa\u00f1udo Arce<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, extracted from his work \u00abJuego de ni\u00f1os\u00bb published by La Tinta del Silencio. This work turned out to be the best seller in the publisher&#8217;s catalog.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00abThe princess was worried.

However, when we read it, it seemed to us that it could be developed as a children&#8217;s story from which the youngest children could also extract an interesting reading, by changing the point of view: <\/span><b>the dragon is no longer a ruthless being feared by the princess, but loved and protected by her.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus arose the idea of \u00abdesecrating\u00bb this short work and <\/span><b>transforming it into a <\/b><b>dragon story for kids<\/b><b>, which children and adults will enjoy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, always, of course, with the permission of its author, to whom we express our gratitude, because we know that it is not easy to see your work transformed from the interpretation of a third party.
