Dorothy Do Storybook Page

Dorothy Do storybook page, Illustrated by Patricia Boxlow

Many illustrated story books were created following the success of the Dorothy Do show. This recovered page features long running Dorothy Do character Brightfin the Sea Serpent, a character introduced in the original Dorothy Do novels, then later adapted into a puppet for the Dorothy Do show. Brightfin was characterized as a large moody creature that hardly got along with anyone other than Dorothy, however a lot of the destruction caused by this character was unintentional rather than pure malice. His scales were said to grant wishes and due to this he often had to avoid sailors and treasure hunters, Dorothy returned one of his scales and for this reason he earned the sea serpents favor.
