Young Sophie Lester wrote a letter to CSIRO scientists in hopes of getting a dragon of her very own, and in the process charmed them with her request.

Their apology to Sophie went viral and ended up on so many blogs that CSIRO decided to take its appreciation of the little girl's letter a step further, by making her a dragon with the aid of a 3D printer.

Toothless is currently on her way to Sophie Lester's home, now proving that scientists can truly create anything -- even dragons for little girls.

That should make a little girl really happy.
