Question: I Don't Remember The Name Of The Book!!?
I'm desperately trying to find a book i read as a kid, but I can't remember its name!
My sketchy memories of the plot are;
A group of kids on a quest with a dragon to collect missing pieces of!.!.!.something!.
The main protagonist is a witch type creature, large and dark in the illustrations!.
They're helped and hindered by a group of mischievous creatures that use their bodies to spell out words (and they lie a lot)
And also, at one point in the story one of the kids is taken prisoner by the witch and uses a scarf she's knitted to spell out 'Help'!.
(A random thing i remember)
It's an old book, maybe from the late 80's!.
If anyone recognises it, please help me out!

"Through the Dragon's Eye" by Christopher Russell
[it was a tv program and there is more information about the show than the book]
"The story involves three children, named Jenny, Amanda and Scott, who are painting a mural on a school wall in Acton, London (Through the Dragon's Eye was filmed at Derwentwater Primary School, Shakespeare Road in Acton, London)!.[2] The dragon in the mural winks at the children and they are transported to a land called Pelamar, where the dragon, named Gorwen, asks the children to undertake a task to save the magical land!.
In order to save Pelamar, the children, with Gorwen's help, must recover the pieces of the Veetacore (the life source of Pelamar), which recently exploded; three of the pieces have been thrown into the distant land of Widge!. Until they succeed, the land of Pelamar turns increasingly barren and its inhabitants start to fade away!. The "baddie" of the story is Charn, "The Evil One", who wants to hijack the Veetacore for his own evil purposes, and who it is implied triggered the original 'explosion' of the Veetacore in the first place!.!.!.!.!.

"At the Veetacore House, Jenny persuaded Charn to let Morris knit her a scarf!. She continues to read the book for Charn (who cannot read) and re-build the Veetacore!. When the Search Party contact Jenny, she holds up Morris' scarf!. On the scarf are the words "HELP! CHARN!" Gorwen decided to return to Pelamar alone (with the two veetons)!. He left Rodey, Amanda, Boris and Scott to find the last veeton by themselves"
