My Grandma used to read this book to me when I was a kid and I can't remember much about it... I know one of the stories was about a diamond dragon and every word just about started with the letter d... My grandma would read this story and couldn't get through a page and I would laugh my butt off... I've been trying to find it for about 20 years now. The story is something like delilah and the diamond dragon or something to that effect... please please pleas help me find the title so I can buy it for her again.:confused:

"Diamon D and the Dreadful Dragon
A children's book from the 70's focusing on alliteration. All "D" if I recall. It dealt with a dragon that was locked away in a dungeon in the land of Dundee. There was a princess, I believe, who's name was Dora. I seem to remember Dora befriending the dragon. I loved this book and any info on it would make me ecstatic!

I believe this is a Sesame Street book, and that my son used to have it. The characters were all Muppets. The story was called something like Darling Daisy Dora and the Dreadful Dragon but I'm not sure it was the title story. Maybe The Sesame Street ABC Story Book with stories for each letter (this being the D story).
Sesame Street, The Diamon D and the Dreadful Dragon, 1971. Thanks to your help, I was able to track it down. My description was a bit incorrect. The land was Dundeedle, not Dundee. Heck, I was close! This site is a valuable resource!! "
