Reach for this book when your child is lobbying for a new pet or is ready to take on more responsibilities around the house. It uses the whimsical premise of adopting a dragon to introduce the very real, often messy tasks of animal care, from feeding and hygiene to providing a safe environment. By framing these duties as part of a grand fantasy adventure, the story validates a child's excitement while grounding them in the commitment required for another living creature. Beyond the practicalities of pet ownership, this book celebrates the power of imagination and the bond between a caretaker and their ward. It is ideal for children ages four to eight who are transitioning from being cared for to learning how to care for others. Parents will appreciate the humor and the gentle way it pivots from 'I want' to 'I will provide.'
