Zog is a 2018 25-minute animated Short Film directed by Max Lang and Daniel Snaddon. It is part of a series of adaptations of Julia Donaldson's children's books by The BBC, a series that includes The Gruffalo, The Highway Rat, Room on the Broom and The Snail and the Whale.A keen yet accident prone young dragon named Zog hopes to earn a gold star at Dragon School by learning how to fly, roar, breathe fire, and his biggest challenge: capture a princess, however he has the help of a kind girl who helps to patch up his cuts, burns, and bruises.The voice cast includes Lenny Henry as the narrator, Hugh Skinner as Zog, Patsy Ferran as Pearl, Kit Harington as Sir Gadabout and Tracey Ullman as Madam Dragon.Another adaptation in 2020 based on the book's sequel Zog and the Flying Doctors was made, where the three main characters travel across the land with their Dragon Ambulance, helping other mythical creatures and animals.

The Klutz: Due to their size and power, dragons often injure themselves. Zog hurting himself in a crash landing and being tended to by Pearl was how they first met.

Everyone Has Standards: Dragons kidnap princesses, not kill them. Zog captures the prop of a princess before the other students can, but the head falls off. The teacher is unimpressed, so Zog fails to earn a gold star.

Good Behavior Points: Madame Dragon gives out gold stars to pupils who have proven themselves top of the class in flying, breathing fire, roaring, fighting, and kidnapping princesses. Zog is always bested by another of his classmates and becomes desperate to earn a star after several years.

Delightful Dragon: Zog has a friendly, playful, and childlike personality. At the ending he decides if Pearl and Gadaout are to become doctors, it's only fitting he should become their flying ambulance.

Won the War, Lost the Peace: Pearl interrupts Zog's and Gadaout's fight for her, saying they haven't done anything special - the world is already full of injured people and dragons. She wants to become a doctor and heal others.

 Zog / int_cf231d54
comment
Cool Teacher: Madame Dragon is patient and motherly towards her students, even when Zog gets into trouble for fighting in class, she still has words of encouragement for him to do better. When Zog decides he should become an ambulance for doctors, she happily embraces the change that her school should teach dragons to be a force for healing, not violence.
