About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling with prejudices or feels nervous about meeting people who seem different from them. It is a perfect choice for navigating those first moments of social anxiety or peer-group silos where kids might assume that 'those' people are scary just because they are unfamiliar. The story follows two dragons from opposite sides of the world who have spent their lives fearing one another based on rumors and assumptions. When a royal mishap forces them together, they discover that despite their different appearances and customs, they share the same heart. This gentle, beautifully illustrated tale serves as a bridge for discussing cultural empathy and the importance of looking past physical differences to find common ground. It is ideal for children ages 4 to 8 who are beginning to expand their social circles and encounter the wider world.
