"Olly had a tremendous time, freely pouncing up the twisty rock walls, mimicking a crazy gecko. However, the more time he spent around the other dragons, the more he felt afraid of the fact he was different." Growing up isn't easy. We can be faced with many challenges, like the stress of starting school, making new friends, and figuring out who we are. Sometimes, we might find ourselves fighting a larger monster. The Perfect Dragon is an excellent tool for educating children and teens about mental well-being, self esteem, and the power of speaking up. It's quirky and humorous, with memorable characters that all individually, play a relevant, and important role in the story. Olly, the Stubnosed dragon, was born without wings. Aware of his differences, as well as facing bullies, he finds himself feeling down at times. Surrounded by a loving family, Olly's support network helps guide him through a journey to find self acceptance, and learn about his inner monsters.
The descriptive narrative empowers the minds of young readers, and delivers a particularly passionate message in today's uncertain times. Breaking stigma, and encouraging someone to find support can save a life. Not only is this a book for young readers to resonate with, it provides information for parents about mental health conditions, and concerns. There is also a section dedicated to mental health care tips, strategies, and resource information. The paperback edition includes vibrant illustrations you wouldn't want to miss out on. (For ages 8+)
