The story gently prepares children for how they should behave in the classroom and shows them that school is fun and not something they need to worry about.
— Ivy's Library
This is such a clever idea, using a dragon as a role model for good behaviour! The story is full of humour and cuteness, and the repeated refrain allows early readers an opportunity to join in. If you have a child starting school... this should be on your list!.
— Father Reading and T
Cute and clever.
— The Book Deli
My son roars with laughter when we read this book. It’s a great book to introduce some fun into the starting school conversation.
