A dragon in New York City? Well, yes (anything can happen in a children’s book ☺). And, as one boy searches for his lost dragon, we get to “travel” around the city counting such things as hot dogs, sailboats, fire hydrants, even pigeons. With black and white illustrations, and a little bit of color, this book is a true stand out!

The Pet Dragon: A Story about Adventure, Friendship, and Chinese Characters

This is an incredibly creative book about a little girl that receives her very own dragon. As the book unfolds, Chinese characters – related to the story – are displayed at the bottom of the page. Children find this book fascinating – and so do I! A wonderful introduction to the Chinese language.
