Dragon contest in two weeks!

Stunts!

Flying competition prizes $$$

Great balls of fire! Drago wants to be in the flying contest. But he hasn't learned to fly yet, and his family says he's too little to learn.

That doesn't stop Drago!

When his family's asleep, he tries and tries, but SPLAT! he fails. Then he asks a bird to help him learn to fly, and they practice, practice, practice.

When the big day of the contest arrives, Drago proves that being little can't stop big dreams.

I enjoyed this one, it had more of a story than many picture books and the illustrations are cute. Drago is an adorable baby dragon who doesn't know how to fly yet, but he's determined to learn even if his family thinks he's too young. With a lot of hard work, practice, and getting up after failing, he finally perfects the figure eight, something even the rest of his family couldn't do. The illustrations were so bright and full of energy it was like watching a TV cartoon rather than reading a book! Highly recommended for all the little dragons in your family.
