Our Dragon

Beloved picture book creator Mem Fox puts a fresh spin on a new baby book in this tender, funny story of unconditional love.

Two parents love their brand-new baby dragon…even though he is always breathing fire (especially when he’s hungry or tired). Dragon tries his best not to set any more fires, but sometimes accidents happen. And when he unwittingly coughs up another flame while playing, what are his loving-but-slightly-exasperated parents to do? He is a baby dragon, after all!
