Hm. Not quite, but definitely closer. I was thinking something like A Boy and His X but for girls.

You might also want to look at Little Guy, Big Buddy and The Kid with the Remote Control.

A trope I see a lot of but can't find anywhere on TV Tropes is simply about, say, a princess being given to a dragon to be eaten, only the dragon doesn't eat her and instead raises her. Or, in other variants, a little girl (sometimes boy) stumbles onto a dragon and befriends him.
I was wondering if this trope existed. If so, what is it called?

Etc.
