East Dragon, West Dragon by Robyn Eversole
4.0
I like that we find dragons in both Eastern and Western stories, and how would those dragons feel about each other? Living on opposite sides of the world, they have assumptions about the other, and they'd rather keep to themselves just in case the other dragons are bigger, fiercer, or have bluer, hotter fire. In the end, the dragons do end up meeting and find that their differences can be appreciated. Nice book to bring up discussions of how we react to "the other".
I wondered with the layout, however. It threw me at the start. The pages about East Dragon were on the left-hand side, and the West Dragon pages were on the right-hand side. Wouldn't it have made more directional sense to flip these? Perhaps I'm the only one who saw this and had to review the "Never Eat Soggy Waffles" information in my head.
