Synopsis

"This magical tale of friendship will send youngsters scurrying to find (or invent) a dragon of their own." (Los Angeles Times)

When a dragon hatches on her pa's farm, a young girl finds a best friend. At first Ma and Pa are wary of Hank, but it's not long before they see him as their daughter does--and welcome the baby dragon into their family.

As it turns out, Hank is not cut out for farm life, but still, he warms the hearts of those around him and leaves a legacy that no one will ever forget.

This imagination-sparking classic picture book from two masters of the field concludes with two fun activities to share.
