    The Children’s Book Review

    Don’t Wake the Dragon is a fantastic, interactive bedtime story featuring a sound-asleep dragon who, under no circumstances, is to be woken up!

    Designed to be read aloud and interacted with, parents will take pleasure in the playful text as much as children will enjoy gently rocking the book from side to side as they sing the dragon a lullaby.

    Publisher’s Synopsis: Shhh! Be very quiet. The rascally dragon is finally asleep. But, when the page turned, the breeze blew the door shut with a BANG! Did it wake up the dragon? Create a fantastic bedtime experience by reading this interactive story featuring a reluctant-to-sleep dragon—a character that children will surely relate! Designed to be read aloud, parents will take pleasure in the playful text as much as children will enjoy hearing it. When the story finally comes to an end, and the gentle lullaby is repeated, the dragon – and your child! – are encouraged to drift off to sleep.

      This looks like such a fun book for kids. I can’t remember some of the excuses which were funny, but I do remember my grandson arguing that he wasn’t tired now, but if he stayed up for two more hours he would be really tired then. Kids and bedtime!

      I have a grand-nephew now and am looking for good children’s books to read to him. I believe that starting kids early to love reading is so important to their future success. This looks like a great choice.
