DRAGONS ARE REAL

BOOK DESCRIPTION

What if I told you that all of the fairy tales, myths and legends that have been told about dragons over the years are WRONG? What if I told you that Dragons are indeed REAL and that they are different than you've ever imagined? Did you know that Dragons are the master of disguises? Did you know that they love sugar and sweets (at unacceptable levels) and will do anything for treats? Award winning author Valarie Budayr brings us this fairly true story based on her childhood friendship with a REAL live Dragon.

LA LA'S REVIEW: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was sent a pdf of this book because I will not feature or join tours for books or authors I am not familiar with. I also requested a physical copy to send to my five year old KOOKIES AND MILK reviewer, Kaylee, and let me tell you... it is going to be monumentally difficult to part with this copy because the book is BRILLIANT! The illustrations are STELLAR, as you can see from the images above, and the story is deeply imaginative, heartwarming, and whimsical. I love and adore it! I will have this book sitting on my bookshelves waiting for my someday grandchildren, and it is now on the top of my list for children's book gifts. I think it will be a perfect gift for teen and adult dragon lovers as well.

About the Illustrator: Michael Welply

Michael Welply was born in London in 1948. The family moved to Winnipeg, Canada, in 1950. He studied art in Winnipeg and then in Paris, but his idea of living from the sales of his paintings is somewhat compromised by the lack of buyers. He started his career as an illustrator in 1977 in London. In 1981 he returned to live in France with his American wife and their two children. Since then he has worked for publishers in both Europe and North America. To date he has illustrated over 80 books and more than 100 covers, in a wide range of subjects extending from detailed non-fiction to juvenile and adult fiction in the realms of fantasy, mythology, science fiction and fairytales.
