Enjoyable submitted by mcmahon09 on June 29, 2012, 1:35pm This was a great read with my kids. We can't wait to read the next two dragon books!

Great Read-Aloud! submitted by Crafty on August 18, 2013, 7:57pm This was a great "Chapter at a time" read for my kids when they were in Kindergarten. If tangerines are in season, pick up a couple to read while reading this book... it only makes it better!
