Egg-cellent Book Bonus! There's a Dragon in Your Book by Tom Fletcher

LOOK! THERE'S AN EGG IN YOUR BOOK!

That's a NOVEL surprise!...

But as we know, an egg doesn't stay an egg

It's cracking and ... hatching out a baby dragon--an adorable baby dragon!

TICKLE HER LITTLE NOSE!

A-CHOOO!

OOPS! There's one thing we didn't know. When baby dragons sneeze, they make little sparks fly all over. We have to blow out the little fires and hurry and turn the page!

But when the page is turned, there are little fires there on both pages. And when we turn that page to tamp down the fire, there's smoke escaping under that page.

LET'S USE IMAGINATION. IMAGINE A BIG WATER BALLOON, READY TO POP!

You DID it!

SPLASH!

The little dragon does a great job! The fire is out! Now, how about imagining up a giant ice cream cone for her reward? YUM! But that huge double decker leaves the little dragon sleepy and too full to fly! Oh, NO! How will she get back home?

Where there's a will, there's a way, in Tom Fletcher's latest in the Who's In Your Book? series, There's a Dragon in Your Book (Random House, 2018), another interactive story book with, thanks to artist Greg Abbott, the cutest baby hatchling dragon ever! Set in spot-art style in large figures and colorful text against bright white pages, this book is a cheery imagination workout for toddlers and an easy and fun book for emergent readers as well. For more fanciful brain workouts, see other books in this interactive book series, There's an Alien in Your Book (Who's In Your Book?), and There's a Monster in Your Book (Who's In Your Book?) (see my review here.)
