There's a Dragon in your Book! Review

The writer and illustrator of There’s a Monster in Your Book have done it again with this cute children’s book. Tom Fletcher’s tale of a baby dragon and the havoc he wreaks on your book is fun and enjoyable for all ages. Each page is illustrated delightfully by Greg Abbott.

I was preparing for a children’s story time at the library where I work when this book came in and simply had to add it to next week’s line up of tales. The story is enchanting for both adult readers and youngsters. The kids will want to hear this tale over and over as they watch all that can happen if a baby dragon happened to hatch in your book. Be warned however you might just have your hands full with Fletcher’s book. You should also defiantly check out his first tale of a Monster in your book.

From Amazon.com
Fletcher’s words tell children to complete actions in an attempt to stop the mayhem the little dragon has begun on each page. Abbott’s colorful images bring each action to life with a turn of the page. 

The warnings offered in the text only come true as you turn the page to find yourself in a more hilarious situation because of each new accident caused.

I highly recommend this book for preschoolers on up to adults for a laugh and fun story. Children will enjoy having this read to them or reading it themselves to see what the dragon does next.
