A dragon beyond first impressions

Doris is feared by the villagers for her dragon traits, though she is described as gentle and eager for affection. When a cold takes away her fire-breathing, the villagers get a chance to see her differently. Rhyming verse and whimsical illustrations carry a picture-book story about how appearances and assumptions can shape the way a community treats someone.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children who enjoy rhyming picture books about animals
  • Families seeking a story about kindness, inclusion, and friendship
  • Young readers exploring the idea of not judging others by appearance

Book overview

A charming rhyming picture book about kindness, courage, and not judging others by their cover.

Doris is a dragon who lives all alone on a hill-misunderstood, avoided, and feared. Sure, she breathes fire and has a pierced nostril, but deep down, she's gentle, warm-hearted, and just wants to be loved.

 

When a nasty cold takes away her fiery breath, the villagers discover the truth: Doris isn't dangerous-she's delightful!

 

With playful rhymes and whimsical illustrations, Doris the Dragon is perfect for children ages 3-7 and families who love heartwarming stories with a message of empathy, acceptance, and friendship.

 

Themes:

✓ Overcoming first impressions

✓ Friendship and inclusion
