Editorial reviews

Here is a fun short story about a little boy determined to have his own dragon, and the grumpy father who won't let him - at least at first. The talented Australian performer Rebecca Macauley repeats the story several times in different ways, first with energetic music, the second time with sounds that tell kids when to flip the page, and the third time with just her voice alone, allowing children to supply their own sound effects. A charming story from the beloved Australian children's book author Peter Jennings.

Publisher's Summary

"Can I have a dragon, please, Dad?" The answer is no. Or is it?

In Ben's world, dragons exist like dogs and fulfill all the doggy functions with dragon overlays, like having two heads, or being able to fly. The dragons all correspond to various breeds of dog.

At last, some Paul Jennings books for early readers, each with the satisfying trademark Paul Jennings twist!
