Who doesn’t like dragons? Especially if they’re cute baby ones. But they do sneeze fire so watch out.
Who doesn’t like dragons? Especially if they’re cute baby ones. But they do sneeze fire so watch out.There’s A Dragon In Your Book is a follow-up to Tom Fletcher and Greg Abbotts’ successful There’s A Monster In Your Book (I’m sensing a theme…) and is fun and engaging.
It’s interactive – not in the sense of lift-the-flap or touchy-feely patches but through words. I can imagine it becoming a favourite repeat read for children who will look forward to blowing out the fire, or high-fiving the dragon or flapping the book to help the dragon fly.
I’m using it in a blog on writing YA fiction as a great example of page-turning and how to build suspense. Strange but true. But don’t worry about all that excitement at bedtime because it gently winds down towards closing the book.
