Review:

The Little Dragon is a hardcover picture book, beautifully illustrated with bright, cartoony artwork, about a young dragon who encounters the overwhelming emotions of fear, embarrassment, and anger. Though he makes mistakes at first, he learns that being open to and making friends with others is better than isolating himself. A simple, charming allegory with an invaluable lesson, The Little Dragon is an excellent read-aloud picture book, ideal for parents and children to share during story time or bedtime, and also a choice pick for public library children's collections. --Midwest Book Review

Through charming storytelling, fun text, and an endearing main character, the author crafts a darling tale full of magic, whimsy, and sweetly delivered valuable lessons. Fink does a great job of exploring big emotions (fear, embarrassment, anger, and anxiety) in captivating, age-appropriate ways that little readers will easily grasp. The Little Dragon, with its adorable hero; meaningful story; and great illustrations is sure to dazzle and amuse readers of all ages! --Word Spelunking

The Whimsical World children's brand is an excellent resource for award-winning and quality children's books that encourage actions of tolerance, acceptance, and, perhaps the hardest lesson to be learned of all, staying true to the core of one's self. --Jack Canfield, co-creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul & NYT Best-selling author of The Success Principles
