******************************
The Little Dragon loves to dance in his special meadow, but when he discovers that someone is watching him and giggling, he starts to feel emotions he’s never felt before. Embarrassed, anxious, and a little angry, the Little Dragon sets out to make sure no one enters his meadow, but he soon learns that there may be a better way to deal with his emotions...and he may make a few new friends in the process.
Sheri Fink’s The Little Dragon is another cute and sparkling book in her picture book The Little Series. Through charming storytelling, fun text, and an endearing main character, the author crafts a darling tale full of magic, whimsy, and sweetly delivered valuable lessons.
Fink does a great job of exploring big emotions (fear, embarrassment, anger, and anxiety) in captivating, age-appropriate ways that little readers will easily grasp. And readers familiar with animated movies/shows, will be delighted by the brightly colored and engaging illustrations. Lynx Studios wonderfully brings The Little Dragon and his beautiful home to life and perfectly captures the enchanting atmosphere Fink has spun.
