Gr 2-4—This is the newest book in the “There’s a Dragon” series, and fans of the previous books will enjoy this addition just in time for the holidays. Eric and Pan the dragon hear something coming down the chimney, but it isn’t Santa like they expected. Pan’s parents have come for a holiday visit! With all these mini-dragons in the house, it’s almost impossible for Eric to keep them a secret from his family. This is a short, fun early chapter series for kids who like humor and a little fantasy. Eric’s struggles to keep the mini-dragons a secret will keep kids engaged and giggling. The illustrations support the text , add more humor, and bring the story to life.
VERDICT Recommended as a second purchase, or where previous books in the series have been popular.
