Amy loves craft time at school. But when her teacher asks everyone to make their own dragon, Amy feels stuck. Her first dragon has a long, wingless body, stag-like horns, and eagle claws, but her friends don’t think it’s a real dragon. Then she makes dragons like theirs, but none of them feels quite right...None of them feels like hers.

After school, a story from Grandma sparks new inspiration, and Amy rounds up her family to help her. Together, can they make Amy’s perfect dragon?

Lucy ★★★★★

My kid usually loses interest halfway through storytime, but this one had her asking "what happens next?" on every page. The dragon's long, wingless body and stag-like horns gave us a lot to talk about, and the craft-time angle made her want to make her own dragon the next day.

Henry ★★★★★

The way this book weaves Chinese mythology into a school craft project is so clever—my kid kept asking questions about the long, wingless dragon and the eagle claws. It sparked a whole conversation about dragons in different cultures, which was a bonus I didn't expect. We're already looking for more

My daughter read this twice in one sitting — the part about Amy mixing stag horns with eagle claws really sparked her imagination, and the pages held up well after she dropped it in the bath. Such a sweet story about turning creative frustration into something magical.
