Yolen, Jane
Waking Dragons Illustrated
by Derek Anderson Simon and
Schuster, 2012. $16.99 PICTURE BOOK Content: G. In
this adorable story, a mother leaves a note for her son to wake the dragons
before he goes to school. The
young knight is in charge of waking his dragons, brushing their teeth, feeding
them breakfast and getting them dressed for the day. After he has done all of this then the little knight gets on
the dragon’s back and is flown to school. Using dragons, this story outlines for young readers
the tasks they need to accomplish before they are ready for the day. The text rhymes and there are only a
few words per page making this a simple and quick story. The illustrations are absolutely
adorable and the young knight and his dog have great facial expressions. This story is similar to other Jane
Yolen books, especially her dinosaur series. PREK, EL (K-3)-ADVISABLE. Reviewer, C. Peterson.
