Do Not Take Your Dragon to Dinner

by Julie A. Gassman, Andy Elkerton (Illustrator)

Overview

We know you shouldn't take your dragon to the library, but what about taking him out to dinner? After all, dragons need to eat too! But with firey breath, flapping wings, and pointy spikes, that might not be a good idea! Rhyming text and diverse characters bring the importance of dinner manners to a new level in this colorful picture book by Julie Gassman.
