==Biography==
===Zog===
Zog is a young dragon who attends Dragon School with several other dragons and is taught by Madame Dragon. Zog wishes to earn one of Madame Dragon's gold stars.
In the first year, Zog and his classmates are taught to fly. Zog tries to fly but nearly falls, but is saved by Madame Dragon, who gives a gold star to a young green dragon, who was the best flyer. Zog and his class are then sent off by Madame Dragon to practice. Zog flies until he crashes into a tree and cuts his nose. Just then a young girl named Pearl arrives and puts a plaster on Zog's nose.
In the second year, Zog and his classmates are taught how to roar where Madame Dragon gives a gold star to a blue dragon for having the best roar. Zog goes off to practice and tries to roar at two knights who are guiding a carriage, but is unable to due to a sore throat. Zog is then pursued by the knights, but manages to escape them. He once again meets Pearl (who was in the carriage) who gives him a peppermint sweet to eat to help his sore throat. Zog gives Pearl a hug before flying away.
In the third year, Zog and his classmates are taught how to breath fire. Zog tries to breathe fire, but only snow, much to the amusement of his classmates. When Zog gets into a fight with a red dragon in class, he is sent to the corner of the classroom as punishment as the red dragon is given a gold star who being the best at breathing fire. He is later shown how to breathe fire by Madame Dragon. Zog then flies through the sky to practice, but runs into the red dragon and they both demonstrate their fire breathing, which Zog triumphs at. However, he accidentally sets his wing on fire and falls into a lake. He once again meets Pearl, who puts a bandage on his wing.
In the fourth year, Zog and his classmates are taught how to capture a princess. The class practice by using a scarecrow princess. The red dragon succeeds in reaching the scarecrow first, only to lose it after crashing into Zog, who takes the scarecrow and brings it to Madame Dragon. However, Zog cannot earn a gold star due to the head of the scarecrow falling off. Madame Dragon then sends the class off to practice. Zog tries to capture many princesses but to no avail. He comes to Pearl's castle and captures what he thinks is a princess but is just a dress. 
He is then discovered by Pearl's tutor and two knights. Zog is then pursued by several knights. Upon getting outside, he meets Pearl again, who reveals that she is a princess and offers to be Zog's captive. Zog brings Pearl to Madame Dragon, who gives Zog a gold star. Pearl then serves as a doctor to the dragons.
The following year, the dragons are taught how to fight. Zog is confronted by a knight named Sir Gadabout, who has come to rescue Pearl. Pearl sees the fight and stops it before berating the two and says that she will not return to her palace to be a princess and wants to be a doctor instead. A reformed Sir Gadabout wishes to be a doctor too and Zog is chosen to be his and Pearl's "Dragon Ambulance" and the two become "flying doctors". Madame Dragon declares that Zog's new job is a excellent career.
Zog, Pearl and Sir Gadabout then fly away into the sky and wave goodbye to Madame Dragon and the other dragons.
===Zog and the Flying Doctors===
Zog is first seen carrying Pearl and Gadabout on his back as he flies over a forest. Pearl and Gadabout tend to the animals there whilst Zog goes to collect water for Pearl. He succeeds in getting water but crash lands whilst flying back and accidentally dents Gadabout's stethoscope.
The trio then fly over an ocean where they hear a mermaid crying in pain due to being sunburnt. Zog attempts to land, only crash, though Pearl manages to dismount before this and tends to the mermaid. Zog gets up and accidentally causes Gadabout to fall off him into the water. Zog then sees a crab and picks it up before throwing it over his shoulder where it clamps onto Gadabout's nose, much to his irritation.
The trio then spot a unicorn that has two horns and has a large branch caught in them. Zog manages to remove the branch, much to the happiness of the unicorn, who then leaves, only to get another branch caught in his horns. Gadabout solves the problem by removing the second horn.
The trio next encounter a lion that has caught the flu. Pearl gives the lion a pill and tells him to keep warm. However the lion's cave is cold, so Zog sends Gadabout to get some wood which he uses to make a campfire for the lion.
The trio are later caught in a storm and are forced to land at the palace, where Pearl's uncle The King confronts her over her whereabouts before having her confined to a tower in the palace. The King's guards then launch an attack on Zog and Gadabout, who are forced to flee for their lives.
Zog and Gadabout attempt to rescue Pearl, but fail miserably.
The pair visit Pearl every night. One night, Pearl tells them that The King is sick. After discovering that The King has fallen ill with orange fever, Pearl sends Zog and Gadabout to get ingredients for a cure which are grated unicorn horn, a lion's sneeze, mermaid scales and snail slime. They succeed in getting the ingredients and travel back to the palace and give them to Pearl, who mixes them with half a pound of cheese. Zog and Gadabout then celebrate when Pearl is able to make the cure. However, the balcony they are on suddenly breaks, causing Zog and Gadabout to land in a room occupied by The King's guards, who chase after them.
After being surrounded by the guards, Zog and Gadabout decide to fight back, but are soon surrounded by more guards and are captured. However The King, having been cured by Pearl's medicine, orders the guards to release them.
Zog, Pearl and Gadabout then fly off into the sunset.
