“To see a dragon,” Grandfather tells George, “You must hunt high and low, and always believe hard enough.”

When Grandfather and George sail off on a dragon-hunting adventure, will George finally see the dragon?

=========

In this tactile picture book, young readers can feel and touch the dragons as the story unfolds. Each double-page illustration invites the young reader to look carefully, to discover the dragons hiding within the pictures. [Check out grandfather’s house to discover how many dragons are hiding in the pages of this book. Then see if you can find all of them.]

The clever story keeps the young reader involved; dragon-counting is sure to be part of the appeal!

Highly recommended.
Great book for young children with different textures to touch and explore. They can look for all of the Dragons while reading about George's adventure.
This book is adorable. There are hidden dragons throughout. My kids get a kick out of searching for each and every one!
Fun little story with hidden images of dragons to find (I found 81 the first time around)
