From a library reference desk
"I just got a baby dragon, and I need to know what to feed it."
[We] managed to refrain from the obvious answers -- "why, fair
maidens and knights, of course, medium well" -- and after a few questions
determined that the patron had been at our local Renaissance Fair the day
before, where there was a booth selling lizards -- probably anoles -- and
calling them "baby dragons"
The patron left happily with some books about reptiles, and she's
been in a few times since to borrow similar titles, from which I surmise that the
little dragon is thriving. I worry that she'll come in soon asking for books on
fireproofing her home."
