About this ebook
Wouldn’t it be fun to have a dragon for a friend? But that’s not going to happen if you don’t know the rules. Simon’s big sister, Emma, knows them all: DON’T poke a dragon when he’s taking a nap; he might sneeze fire. DON’T be surprised if the dragon fries some eggs with his breath. DO be sure to wear a seat belt should you ever ride on his back . . .
Simon is determined to master every last rule, because then maybe, just maybe, he’ll get the chance to embark on what is sure to be the adventure of a lifetime.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Simon loved dragons. He loved reading books about them, drawing pictures of them, and playing with dragon toys. When he confides in his sister Emma that he intends to befriend a dragon, she makes sure that he knows all the rules about such encounters, from not showing fear to wearing your seat-belt, when riding upon the dragon's back. Simon promises to follow the rules... or, at least to try...Using a wonderfully fantastic premise - who doesn't love dragons?! - author/artist Valeri Gorbachev spins a tale here that is as much about friendship, and how to be a good friend, as it is about loving those magical draconite figures. The artwork in How To Be Friends with a Dragon is colorful and engaging, capturing the jolly humor of Simon and the dragon's interactions, even as the more staid text, in the form of big sister Emma's strictures, paints a less adventurous picture. Recommended to all young dragon lovers, and to anyone looking for children's stories about friendship, and how to be a good and considerate playmate.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a classroom favorite. The kids especially love the good-natured tone of the story. The part where the dragon cooks eggs in a pan with his fire is particularly good scene.
