Meet Pip
Loyal, brave and a little bit flustered. He takes his job of looking after Emmie very seriously and dreams of snow, which he has only ever seen once. Hopeful to the point of silliness (he thinks a tissue box might be snow), very polite to grown-ups (and dragons), and quietly, enormously generous: he gives Emmie the one snowflake he's kept since the toy shop.
