When I was a kid, I wished I had a dragon just like the one in this book. For one thing, he would have eaten my brussel sprouts. Actually, that alone would have been enough of a reason. The dragon in "Me and My Dragon" is such a friendly dragon that my four year old son thinks he says, "Good morning, little boy. Have a wonderful day". And he probably does; I'm just too old to hear it. The story is adorable, but what really sets this book apart and made me want to buy it are the fabulous, whimsical, slightly off-beat and ridiculously brilliant illustrations. The cover artwork is only a taste of what is in store for readers of this book. In the story Me and My Dragon, a boy decides he would like a dragon as a pet. Throughout the story he thinks of what all he would do to take care of his pet dragon. This is a great story for younger children. It includes a lot of imagination with great illustration. The text is short and simple and can be relatable for young kids, especially boys. What little boy wouldn't want a pet dragon! Citation: Biedrzycki, D. (2011). Me and my dragon.
