Everyone needs a cuddle. Maybe dragons more than most.

Hmm...this one didn't quite do it for me. It was kind of cute, the idea that dragons go about flaming things because they are grumpy and just need some hot chocolate and a cuddle to be nice. But these "goodnight" type books usually are meant for bedtime reading and I didn't feel like it was helping anyone go to sleep. The prose rhythm was also kind of awkward, it didn't rhyme and it didn't really flow. Maybe if you read it aloud just right it might work. I've been reading a bunch of little kid dragon books the past few days (basically grabbed every one I could find at the library and there were a surprising number) and this is probably my least favorite.
