There's a Dragon Downstairs

32 pp. | McElderry | April, 2005 | Trade ISBN 0-689-86774-3 $16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Amanda Harvey. Every night, Sophie thinks she hears a dragon downstairs in her living room, but when she creeps down to catch him--wearing her suit of armor or her firefighter gear or her princess dress--there's never anything there. Gently rhythmic text and cozy watercolors depict a girl gradually working through her fear and happily discovering the real source of the noise.
