Six years later, Pete, now 11, spots a lumberjack crew
chopping down trees near his home. Natalie, the daughter of the site foreman,
spots and chases him. When Natalie accidentally falls from a tree, her screams
attract her father, Jack, and his girlfriend, park ranger Grace Meacham. Pete
tries to run away, but Gavin, Jack's brother, accidentally knocks him
unconscious. After realizing that Pete has vanished, Elliot stumbles around
looking for him and ends up knocking over a tree near the lumber camp, leading
Gavin to organize a hunting party to find him. Meanwhile, Pete wakes up to find
himself in a local hospital, which he escapes in an effort to return to the
forest. Before the police can catch him, Grace finds Pete and convinces him to
come live with her by promising to take him to the forest the next day.
Gavin and his men locate Elliot's treehouse, but when they
try to search it, Elliot reveals himself and scares them away. He then follows
them back to town in an effort to find Pete. When he does, however, and finds
Pete settling in with Grace's family, he leaves. After receiving a drawing of Elliot
from Pete, Grace takes it to her father, who claims to have discovered the same
dragon as a young man. He advises her to trust Pete, and to find Elliot.

A simple family drama that involves a dragon. Faith, trust and believe are the true values implied especially in a comunity filled with different ideas and greed. It also somehow reminded me of Tarzan. Well, it truly resembled Tarzan but Pete has Elliot and not the jungle animals. Overall an entertaining movie to watch with the family.
