a special storytime In recognition of Earth Day

A fantasy poem about a curious boy facing a distraught dragon who is himself in an unusual predicament! The explanatory tale reveals the dragon’s story and leads to a surprising conclusion - would you agree with the solution? Notes are included to encourage understanding and wider exploration of the story’s themes.

A quirky, fun story that gives the opportunity to delve into language and terminology. My son and daughter love reading this book and love learning about the dragons feelings and needs!
