Overview / 简介: |
A classic dragon tale returns in paperback!
When Billy Bixbee finds a tiny dragon in his bedroom, his mom tells him, “There’s no such thing as a dragon!” This only makes the dragon get bigger. He grows, and grows, and grows, until he’s bigger than Billy’s house—and that’s just the beginning!
Charming text and playful illustrations by well-known author-illustrator Jack Kent pair in a terrific story that demonstrates how a little attention can make a big difference, no matter what size the problem. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| There's No Such Thing as a Dragon (1975) by Jack Kent, part of the Family Storytime series, relates the charming tale of Billy Bixbee, who awakens to find a dragon "about the size of a kitten" sitting on his bed. The dragon grows by leaps and bounds, until Billy dares to pet the attention-seeking creature and it shrinks back down into an adoring little lap dragon. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| As much as I hate to admit it, the children's books I buy for my 4-year-old have to appeal to me in some small way, too, or I don't read them very often. Fortunately, my son and I have similar taste, and we both enjoyed this tale about a boy who offers his mother a little lesson about faith in make-believe. The boy persists in his belief in dragons despite his mom's admonitions that they "don't exist." The fairy tale friend just refuses to go away until he becomes so large that he just can't be ignored any longer. Mom, in a charming ending, is proved wrong. It would be nice to see the mother doing more than housework all day, but alas, it's still a fun read! |
