Reviews:
‘In this beautiful book children describe their own fantastical dragons, from the tiny, rainbow winged variety that whispers in ears to the dragon as big as a village with a tail as long as a river.’ Daily Telegraph
‘A truly imagination-stirring read that will excite young readers, ignote their imaginations and those of the adults reading to/with them.’ Early Years Educator
‘Tell Me a Dragon is a delight for young readers to enjoy and a treat for the imagination. This enlarged and high-quality production edition allows the quality and intricacy of Jackie’s artwork to take precedence on the page, bringing the title back
into print for readers to experience like never before.’ Tenby Observer
