Overview

Follow the dragon’s lead as kids headed to class explore school manners. When a dragon goes to school, will she throw crayons and refuse to share the toys? Why, no! Dragons don’t do that! While behaving well at school isn’t always easy, this dragon makes it fun.

A companion book to the manners must-have When a Dragon Comes to Stay, this book helps kids get fired up for good classroom behavior.

Reviews and awards

A young green critter with a pointed, scaly tail and small wings protruding from a bright yellow rain slicker is the poster dragon for proper preschool behavior… Readers familiar with schooltime routines and manners may feel appreciate [sic] having expected behaviors emphasized.
