A Rainy Dragon Day

(3) K-3 Translated by Melody Shaw. On a rainy day, Fred the dragon visits a child for sausages and coffee. When Fred needs the bathroom, the small indoor space won’t do, so the two search outdoors for a suitable spot. After several failed attempts, Fred flies them to a magical, resort-like place where dragons “go.” The droll text and delicate, muted illustrations balance wit and warmth, inviting open conversation about a natural bodily function.
