review:
'Dragons: Father and Son' by Alexandre Lacroix with illustrations by Ronan Badel is a story about becoming who you are instead of who others might want you to be.

Drake is a young dragon who lives with his slightly grouchy looking father. Now that Drake is older, his father wants him to go out and terrorize villages by burning them down. Drake has misgivings about doing this. Along the way, he meets characters who convince him that he shouldn't torch their buildings. Could Drake's father be wrong?

It's a very cute story with great illustrations to accompany. I loved the grumpiness of the dad. I loved Drake's pose as he tilts his head back before he is about to torch a building. The story has a gently message and doesn't serve to make any character look stupid, which I appreciated.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
