With a lyrical, lulling read-aloud text and gorgeous, atmospheric art, this is a story of a very little girl and a very biggle dragon who are the very best of friends. A sequel to the acclaimed Lovabye Dragon, bestselling author Barbara Joosse tells another lyrical tale of friendship between a little girl and a loveable dragon - who decide to play a game of hide-and-seek. First, Girl covers her eyes and Dragon curls his enormous self into a not-small-at-all ball behind a teeny-tiny rock - what a hiding spot! Then, it's Girl's turn, so she runs and she runs to a faraway, hidden hidey-hole place - where she waits and she waits - because Dragon can't find her! Now Girl is lost deep in the dark forest filled with monsters-of-the-night sounds, and her heart begins to thump its own trem-below sound - a sound that only very specials friends can hear, and a sound that might just be heard by an evermore, forever friend like Dragon... With evocative art from Randy Cecil, this is a beautiful, reassuring testament to the power of protective, loving friendship.
