The Dragon Who Couldn't Breathe Fire

A heartwarming, confidence-building starting-school story about Long Long, a Chinese dragon who can't breathe fire. At the bottom of Emerald Depths, there lived a family of dragons. Their names were Baba, Mama, Ge Ge and Long Long, and they had just arrived from China... Long Long can't wait to meet the other dragons at his new school, until he notices the differences between them. He doesn't have wings and he can't breathe fire! But he can control the weather... and when a fireball threatens to burn down the school, Long Long discovers how incredible it is to be a Chinese dragon. This heartwarming story from Roger Lam, illustrated by Zhi Ling Lee, is a celebration of everyone's differences, and encourages young children to learn about and embrace their heritage.
