By: Shelly Moore Thomas

Published by: Dutton Children's Books
Pages: 51
Ages:7-12

This book is about 3 little dragons who come down with a terrible cold, and a knight hears them sneezing. So he sets out on a journey to find whoever is sick. After awhile, he finds the sick dragons in bed. The knight becomes concerned with the sick dragons, and sets out to find a wizard to help. The wizard gave him some special stew to give the three dragons. He returned to the cave where the little dragons lived to give them the stew. But the dragons refused to eat the stew. So the knight tried it himself, and it was terrible. So he went back to the wizard for something new. The wizard gave him a new kind of soup, and the knight returns once again to the cave. Once again the dragons refused the soup. When their mother came home she made yummy soup and they got better, and the knight could return to his castle satisfied that he had helped.

Who would I recommend this book to? Beginning readers, this is a good first novel.

Possible problems/conflicts? None that I see

My reaction? Cute book, not my favorite I have read though. Pretty repetative. 3 stars.
