I'm an elementary school librarian. I read this to my second graders. I and they enjoyed the heck out of it!

*Reading Books for 5 months that Inspired Disney Before Disney World Trip Book Three*
This is a book I haven't read since childhood. The dragon just wants a simple life of not fighting. He is a dragon that does not want to work (same), and just wants others to leave him alone when it comes to drama (same Dragon, same). Of course, he does want to socialize, to bad the whole town is making mean rumours about him. Poor dragon is stuck in Jr. High! The good news is the boy, dragon and knight come up with a scheme to solve all this so the dragon can live peacefully and have a social life.
Overall, this is a really cute story. Can't wait to watch the movie.

The Reluctant Dragon by Kenneth Grahame – A sweet, classic dragon fairy tale! I read it years ago, but I took advantage of my Audible subscription to have a bedtime story! Happy Reading!

I picked this up at a library book sale because I thought it looked cute and I was not disappointed.

Perfect pairing of prose and illustrations. Put this book next to the definition of “delightful” and as an example of “probably deeper than you think at first.” (It’s also quite funny.)
