East Dragon, West Dragon

Two giant, imposing dragons confront their greatest fears...each other!

East Dragon and West Dragon live on opposite sides of the world. They have never met--and they like it that way. East Dragon is sure that West Dragon's huge wings mean that he is very, very strong. West Dragon fears that East Dragon's long, swishy tail means that he is very, very fierce. But when some meddlesome knights start a riff between their two kingdoms, East Dragon and West Dragon are finally forced to come face-to-fire-breathing-face. Might the two dragons finally discover they aren't so different after all?

Detail-rich illustrations combine with a lighthearted, inspiring message to create a playful twist on the classic theme of fierce, fearless dragons. This story of friendship across cultures begs to be read again and again!
