                <text>â€œI did â€¦ a dragon; I called it The Friendly Dragon. The architect said he didn't think he would use it because he said the children would be frightened of a dragon. But children love dragons and it's not an ugly dragon, it's a friendly dragon with a big smile and it's cozy and you can sit on its back on those humps on its back. It's just that he never was a child, I guess, so he doesn't know. So they put up a thing, a structural beam thing. I've never seen a child near it so maybe they didn't get the audience that they wanted really. I think maybe I'll do that Dragon. I like dragons anyway, they're special.â€ (Marshall Fredericks, from a 1981 interview with Joy Colby, The Detroit News art critic.) &#13;
&#13;
Throughout his long career, Fredericks often returned to his joyful and whimsical work that involved animals. â€œThe Friendly Dragon, cast twice in 1991, as a pair for the Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a childâ€™s magical dream.  Like a Maurice Sendak illustration (popular author of Where the Wild Things Are), Fredericksâ€™ dragon presents a danger that has become approachable, a wild animal that has become as friendly as a pet.â€  (Marshall M. Fredericks, Sculptor, p. 14)</text>

                <text>â€œI did â€¦ a dragon; I called it The Friendly Dragon. The architect said he didn't think he would use it because he said the children would be frightened of a dragon. But children love dragons and it's not an ugly dragon, it's a friendly dragon with a big smile and it's cozy and you can sit on its back on those humps on its back. It's just that he never was a child, I guess, so he doesn't know. So they put up a thing, a structural beam thing. I've never seen a child near it so maybe they didn't get the audience that they wanted really. I think maybe I'll do that Dragon. I like dragons anyway, they're special.â€ (Marshall Fredericks, from a 1981 interview with Joy Colby, The Detroit News art critic.) &#13;
&#13;
Throughout his long career, Fredericks often returned to his joyful and whimsical work that involved animals. â€œThe Friendly Dragon, cast twice in 1991, as a pair for the Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a childâ€™s magical dream.  Like a Maurice Sendak illustration (popular author of Where the Wild Things Are), Fredericksâ€™ dragon presents a danger that has become approachable, a wild animal that has become as friendly as a pet.â€  (Marshall M. Fredericks, Sculptor, p. 14)  &#13;

                <text>â€œI did â€¦ a dragon; I called it The Friendly Dragon. The architect said he didn't think he would use it because he said the children would be frightened of a dragon. But children love dragons and it's not an ugly dragon, it's a friendly dragon with a big smile and it's cozy and you can sit on its back on those humps on its back.

&#13;
Throughout his long career, Fredericks often returned to his joyful and whimsical work that involved animals. â€œThe Friendly Dragon, cast twice in 1991, as a pair for the Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a childâ€™s magical dream.  Like a Maurice Sendak illustration (popular author of Where the Wild Things Are), Fredericksâ€™ dragon presents a danger that has become approachable, a wild animal that has become as friendly as a pet.â€  (Marshall M. Fredericks, Sculptor, p. 14)  &#13;

                <text>â€œI did â€¦ a dragon; I called it The Friendly Dragon. The architect said he didn't think he would use it because he said the children would be frightened of a dragon. But children love dragons and it's not an ugly dragon, it's a friendly dragon with a big smile and it's cozy and you can sit on its back on those humps on its back. It's just that he never was a child, I guess, so he doesn't know. So they put up a thing, a structural beam thing. I've never seen a child near it so maybe they didn't get the audience that they wanted really. I think maybe I'll do that Dragon. I like dragons anyway, they're special.â€ (Marshall Fredericks, from a 1981 interview with Joy Colby, The Detroit News art critic.) &#13;
&#13;
Throughout his long career, Fredericks often returned to his joyful and whimsical work that involved animals. â€œThe Friendly Dragon, cast twice in 1991, as a pair for the Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a childâ€™s magical dream.  Like a Maurice Sendak illustration (popular author of Where the Wild Things Are), Fredericksâ€™ dragon presents a danger that has become approachable, a wild animal that has become as friendly as a pet.â€  (Marshall M. Fredericks, Sculptor, p. 14)  &#13;

                <text>â€œI did â€¦ a dragon; I called it The Friendly Dragon. The architect said he didn't think he would use it because he said the children would be frightened of a dragon. But children love dragons and it's not an ugly dragon, it's a friendly dragon with a big smile and it's cozy and you can sit on its back on those humps on its back. It's just that he never was a child, I guess, so he doesn't know. So they put up a thing, a structural beam thing. I've never seen a child near it so maybe they didn't get the audience that they wanted really. I think maybe I'll do that Dragon. I like dragons anyway, they're special.â€ (Marshall Fredericks, from a 1981 interview with Joy Colby, The Detroit News art critic.) &#13;
&#13;
Throughout his long career, Fredericks often returned to his joyful and whimsical work that involved animals. â€œThe Friendly Dragon, cast twice in 1991, as a pair for the Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a childâ€™s magical dream.  Like a Maurice Sendak illustration (popular author of Where the Wild Things Are), Fredericksâ€™ dragon presents a danger that has become approachable, a wild animal that has become as friendly as a pet.â€  (Marshall M. Fredericks, Sculptor, p. 14)  &#13;

                <text>â€œI did â€¦ a dragon; I called it The Friendly Dragon. The architect said he didn't think he would use it because he said the children would be frightened of a dragon. But children love dragons and it's not an ugly dragon, it's a friendly dragon with a big smile and it's cozy and you can sit on its back on those humps on its back. It's just that he never was a child, I guess, so he doesn't know. So they put up a thing, a structural beam thing. I've never seen a child near it so maybe they didn't get the audience that they wanted really. I think maybe I'll do that Dragon. I like dragons anyway, they're special.â€ (Marshall Fredericks, from a 1981 interview with Joy Colby, The Detroit News art critic.) &#13;
&#13;
Throughout his long career, Fredericks often returned to his joyful and whimsical work that involved animals. â€œThe Friendly Dragon, cast twice in 1991, as a pair for the Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a childâ€™s magical dream.  Like a Maurice Sendak illustration (popular author of Where the Wild Things Are), Fredericksâ€™ dragon presents a danger that has become approachable, a wild animal that has become as friendly as a pet.â€  (Marshall M. Fredericks, Sculptor, p. 14)  &#13;
