The Dragon Machine

32 pp. | Dutton | May, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-525-47114-6 $$15.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Wayne Anderson. When lonely George's dragon friends (whom only he can see) become too troublesome, he builds a flying machine with which to lead them to a great wilderness, where, according to a map, "Here Be Dragons." Misty images of the dragon-shaped, Rube Goldberg-style machine are reminiscent of Sís's work. A distinctive font adds to the accessibly old-fashioned feel of this simple story about coming home.
