You'll remember this dragon

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2005

First of all, I think the reading level is incorrect. This book has language more complex than books for babies. I would say preschool through 2nd grade is more appropriate. I read books to kids for a living and this is one of the best ones I've run across lately. It has a sense of reality, even though the main character is a baby dragon. It is uniquely charming, written by an accomplished Swedish author. The illustrations are appealing. The story has a sad but acceptable and quite realistic ending that any child can relate to.

a little slice of understated magic...

In an age of high-tech virtual reality, instant gratification and imagination-numbing sensory overload, here is a tale that is simply told and simply illustrated. It is a tale that has touched my soul and the poignancy of this story of unconditional love and loss has the power to tug at my heartstrings every single time I read it.
