Editorial Reviews

In the spring, Rabbit and Hedgehog are having a picnic when the rock that Rabbit is sitting on rumbles and cracks. A baby dragon emerges, and they take him home. However, the little creature becomes a big problem when it can no longer fit in the house. The friends come up with a solution so that the dragon is not excluded. The illustrations are rich in detail and texture. Colors range from the lush greens of the season, to the blue-black moonlit night as the backdrop for their campfire. The faces of the three characters are full of endearing expressions and tenderness. This story of friendship and inclusion will be enjoyed by parents and children alike.” —Kris Hickey, Columbus Metropolitan Library, OH, School Library Journal
