The Tale of Custard the Dragon

The Tale of Custard the Dragon is a poem for children written by Ogden Nash. A picture book of the 1936 poem with illustrations by Lynn M. Munsinger was published in 1995.

• It prompted Leonard Lipton to pen a poem in 1959, which he later turned into the song "Puff, the Magic Dragon." This poem parodies a short story and is written as a ballad.

• This poem is a prose fantasy about Belinda, who lives by herself in a home with four animals. These include a tiny kitten named Ink, a grey-colored mouse named Blink, a little dog named Mustard, and a dragon named Custard. The residents of the residence take great pleasure in their bravery and lack of fear.

• The poem is thought to be "perhaps his most well-known poetry for children."
