Who Loves The Dragon Blog Tour (review and giveaway)


I'm so excited to have the Who Loves The Dragon Blog Tour stopping by today! This tour is hosted and sponsored by The Children's Book Review...



Who Loves the Dragon? 
Written by Bianca Schulze 

Illustrated by Samara Hardy 


In this interactive follow-up to Don’t Wake the Dragon, our beloved Dragon is wide-awake and preparing to celebrate one of the kingdom’s most important events of the year: the annual Friendship Festival! It’s a time for everyone to gather and have fun, all honoring their meaningful friendships. But on the day of the feast, the cooks are called away to cater to the Queen and the knights must report for special duty in the Enchanted Forest. With everyone gone, Dragon is upset and worried that this year’s Friendship Festival is doomed. Could they be planning something special for her? And in the meantime, can you help cheer her up? With colorful and humorous illustrations throughout, this read-aloud picture book encourages kids to interact with the text on every page. Young readers will love waving to characters, blowing kisses, dancing, and more on this fun ride alongside Dragon and her adorable friends in this delightful story that will beg to be read again and again. 


Ages 3-6 | 32 Pages | Publisher: Clever Publishing | ISBN-13: 978-1951100438

The Friendship Festival is Dragon’s favorite day; a day she looks forward to all year...but this year, all her friends are too busy to celebrate. This makes Dragon sad. And a sad Dragon can lead to a fiery dragon. It’s up to readers to help cheer Dragon up...and maybe discover a fun surprise. 

 

Bianca Schulze follows up her awesome first picture book, Don’t Wake The Dragon, with the delightfully fun and imaginative Who Loves The Dragon?  

 

Every page of this picture book is bursting with dragon-sized laughs, overflowing heart, and creative interactive fun. Little readers will love waving to characters, blowing kisses, telling jokes, joining a dance party, and so much more, as they do their best to cheer Dragon up. Samara Hardy’s engaging and immersive illustrations, with their dreamy color palette full of lovely pinks and reds, lively and adorably rendered characters, and so many fun and clever details, perfectly capture the heartwarming and joyous soul of the story.  

 

While whimsically fun and giggle-inducingly silly, Who Loves The Dragon also offers a beautiful and timely message about kindness, friendship, and love which is sure to inspire and encourage little readers to spread all three wherever they go!  

 

Chock full of sweet charm, interactive fun, and so many belly laughs, this delightful tale will surely have little readers asking for it to be read again and again. Perfect for read-a-louds, especially this Valentine’s season, Who Loves The Dragon is utterly adorable from beginning to the very tip of its tail!

The Sea in Winter Blog Tour (giveaway)


The Sea In Winter Blog Tour is stopping by today with a giveaway. This tour is hosted by The Children's Book Review and sponsored by HarperCollins...



The Sea in Winter 

Written by Christine Day 


Publisher’s Synopsis: In this evocative and heartwarming novel for readers who loved The Thing About Jellyfish, the author of I Can Make This Promise tells the story of a Native American girl struggling to find her joy again. 


It’s been a hard year for Maisie Cannon, ever since she hurt her leg and could not keep up with her ballet training and auditions. 


Her blended family is loving and supportive, but Maisie knows that they just can’t understand how hopeless she feels. With everything she’s dealing with, Maisie is not excited for their family midwinter road trip along the coast, near the Makah community where her mother grew up. 


But soon, Maisie’s anxieties and dark moods start to hurt as much as the pain in her knee. How can she keep pretending to be strong when on the inside she feels as roiling and cold as the ocean?
