Review
Who Loves the Dragon? is a clever, entertaining and fun interactive story. The story is engaging for young children. The recommended age range for this book is for ages 3-6, but I think even toddlers ages 1-2 would like the colors, story and interactive elements of this book. Interactive books are so fun for kids. I love how it encourages kids to help cheer-up the dragon by waving, dancing, marching and more! I also love that the book celebrates friendship and helping cheer-up Dragon when he is sad. I also feel like the content is very age appropriate by encouraging kids to celebrate friendship for Valentine's Day. I also like that Dragon has a diverse type of friends ranging from animals to knights and chefs. The author also presents some coping mechanisms to children for disappointment, anger, and sadness through recommending that the Dragon count to ten, take deep breaths, relaxing and thinking about something else. The text is very kid friendly as well as the illustrations. The illustrations are attractive, bright and friendly. I was very impressed with this book and love that it's so kid-friendly in the way that it was written, illustrated and the message in the story. I would recommend checking out this book and adding it to your home library.
