One summer day, a boy meets a dragon. They become instant friends and share incredible adventures together. When Boy is sad, Dragon cheers him up. When Boy is scared, Dragon makes him feel brave. But, in time, things start to change: Boy gets bigger, while Dragon stays the same. Boy goes on adventures alone. Eventually, Dragon finds himself guarding Boy's treasures until Boy returns . . . if Boy returns.

This deftly poignant story captures the lifelong friendship between a child and a beloved toy. It's a modern twist on The Velveteen Rabbit and especially perfect for lovers of the Toy Story films.

Industry Reviews

[A] sweet, heartfelt tale about love transcending generations . . . Readers will love the idea that beautiful childhood memories last a lifetime. --Kirkus Reviews

Slack's calm, measured storytelling doesn't overplay the pathos, and the relief when the box is finally opened, to reveal that the dragon will now belong to Boy's daughter, should resonate. --Publishers Weekly
