A sweet story with adorable and lovely illustrations.

Title: The Bakery Dragon

Author / Illustrator: Devin Elle Kurtz

Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers

Ember is a little dragon. Bigger dragons are able to do bigger things and hoard gold and treasures with them while they return to their homes, but Ember is not able to do any such thing. Ember tries to breathe out fire to scare poor villagers but with the small amount of fire that comes out of Ember's mouth, no one seems to be scared at all! Ember is not a big scary dragon at all!

However, he is determined to do something about this. One evening when he sees a distant light in the village, he follows it and ultimately, dozes off in front of a bakery window. When it starts storming heavily, the lady inside the bakery opens the door and invites Ember inside so that he has a safe place from the storm. But, whoa! Ember sees the loads of golden bread loaves inside the bakery and becomes excited thinking these could be his treasures. Yes, indeed!

Ember does make his own treasure with those loaves of bread.. Read the book to know how!

📚 The things you create out of your own hard work is more valuable and priceless than the things you steal from others by scaring them or by snatching from them.

📚 Elegant and delightful illustrations.

📚 Recommended for kids ages 3+
