Why Are American Afraid of Dragons? EAT 3 AOL. Frech ette 15 th of Febuary 1997 by: Ursula K. Le Guin While reading the article by Ursula K. Le Guin; Why Are Americans Afraid Of Dragons, I couldn’t stop myself from agreeing with her beliefs.

Because it only takes a mere couple of hours to view a film on television, one is left with more time to take care of greater responsibilities. Now, you decide which media is more appropriate for your tight schedule.
