Personal Review: A Friend For Dragon (Dragons) by Dav Pilkey
I ordered this and placed it on our bookshelf. My 4.5 year old son saw and
immediately wanted to me to read it. He enjoyed it.
It is somewhere between a picture book and a chapter book. There are
pictures on every page, but it is divided into chapters. It is quite short.
The story is about a dragon who wants a friend. An apple falls on his
head. A snake pretends to be the apple and talks to the dragon. The
dragon becomes friends with the apple and takes it home. They have fun
together.

But then the apple won't talk (because the snake is no longer around.)
The dragon gets worried and takes it to the doctor. There is a walrus in
the waiting room. When Dragon gets up for some water, the walrus eats
the apple. All is left is the apple core. Dragon take the apple home. It
turns brown and dies. He buries it outside and is sad. "But after a while,
Dragon stopped being so sad. He cried less and less. He began to eat
and sleep better. Still, he was very lonely."
The apple core grows into a huge apple tree. Dragon, feeling lonely, goes
outside and another apple falls on his head. There are many apples on
the tree. The end.
I though it was a nice, thoughtful book about death. My son and I talked
about death after reading it.
