The Book

This is a wonderful book for beginning readers.  It offers sight words and visuals to help with their reading success.  

Kids will relate to the excitement of a new neighbour moving in across the street and I love the aspect of showing kindness and acceptance as a lovely way to welcome them into the neighbourhood.  Who doesn't love a picnic with a dragon and a unicorn invited to attend too?  Awesome!

The sweet illustrations are bright, colourful and engaging and the characters are adorable.  The book is part of the"Dear Dragon" series.  It includes a picture glossary, reading support and activities.  I love the book and its mission and I highly recommend it.
