Amy Wu en de lappendrakendragon

My kid usually loses interest halfway through storytime, but this one had her asking "what happens next?" on every page. The dragon's long, wingless body and stag-like horns gave us a lot to talk about, and the craft-time angle made her want to make her own dragon the next day.

The way this book weaves Chinese mythology into a school craft project is so clever—my kid kept asking questions about the long, wingless dragon and the eagle claws. It sparked a whole conversation about dragons in different cultures, which was a bonus I didn't expect. We're already looking for more

My daughter read this twice in one sitting — the part about Amy mixing stag horns with eagle claws really sparked her imagination, and the pages held up well after she dropped it in the bath. Such a sweet story about turning creative frustration into something magical.
