Review
I saw this one across the bookstore, and made a beeline for it. With simple, short verses and amazing illustrations, this is a gem of a picture book. Parlato's illustrations create dragons out of birds, bugs, fish, flags, and more, an imaginative visual treat that invites lingering. Young or old, any dragon-lover should make room for this one on their bookshelves.
