Description
Author: Caryl Hart | Illustrator: Rosalind Beardshaw
A delightful rhyming picture book perfect for any little dragon getting ready to celebrate Christmas!
This festive addition to the When a Dragon . . . series by award-winning creators Caryl Hart and Rosalind Beardshaw is full of recognisable pre-school behaviour.
When it's time to celebrate Christmas, does a dragon tangle up the lights or grab the presents? Of course not! She joins in with the carol singing, helps to decorate the tree and hands round all the gifts. And if you hear her little cars whizzing about in the night, well . . . she is a dragon after all!
Caryl Hart is the author of books and series including The Princess and the . . . and How to Grow a Dinosaur. She has won many awards including a Magnola Book Award, the Geoffrey Trease Prize for Children's Writing, the Oldham Brilliant Books Award and the Stockport Brilliant Books Award.
Rosalind Beardshaw is the illustrator of My Pet Star by Corrinne Averiss, which won the Sainsbury's Book Award. She also won the Sheffield Baby Book Award for Box, written by Min Flyte.
