review 1: Simon loves dragons. He loves them so much that he wants to have one as friend. But his sister Emma says there are certain rules you have to follow first. She knows that you don’t poke a dragon when he’s napping because he might sneeze fire. You don’t be surprised if the dragon fries some eggs on his breath and don’t forget to wear a seat belt if you ride on his back. Rules like these are told to Simon to help make and keep a friend. This story is great for children trying to make friends. This story allows children to have a funny way of trying to make friends because if Simon can friends with a dragon than anyone can make friends. By reading this book children will have a bit of courage to try and make friends whether they are old or new ... moreones.
review 2: A young boy loves dragons and would like to befriend one. His sister tells him the rules about befriending a dragon. This dragon story is shorter and a little bit more accesible for preschoolers than some of the other recent dragon picture books that have been published. Artwork is not my favorite, but does work with the story. Pen and ink plus watercolor just doesn't have as finished of a quality to it as other styles. Still, I am looking forward to reading this story at an upcoming storytime! less
