Editorial Reviews

I really liked this book, so much that I bought one for a nephew, grandchild, & myself. It is a wonderful tale that I think all children will enjoy. It's a little bit fairy tale and a little bit make believe, and it shows how friendship & love can last through separation & time. I enjoyed reading it, and I can't wait to read it to my nephew and grandchild. It will be one of those story books that will be around for a long time...and should be a part of any child’s library.

Aunt Susie SP

This is a good picture book for young children and it has a heartwarming theme. There is select use of simple words and excellent illustrations. The author keeps the plot simple and confined to the way young children fantasize in their mind, which is a good indicator for her writing ability for young children. There is no textual focus, which is again appropriate when writing for young children. Instead, the focus is on creating a pleasurable story for the target audience. Highly recommended for

One of the BEST children's stories I've read in a long time!!!

Lyn Belcher

This book is well written for small children. It uses language that the younger children can easily follow and creates such wonderful imagery that meshes well with the gorgeous artwork. I bought this for my 2 year old niece and she loves it! Her mom read it to her and she now pretends to be a dragon! I highly recommend this book for anyone with a young child who loves fairy tales. This is a must have!
