Cute retelling of The Reluctant Dragon with ADORABLE illustrations. Love that the author named the boy Kenneth and the dragon Grahame. ❤️

So. Much. Fun. I downloaded this ebook for the kids to listen to in the car but since it was read by Alan Cumming, really it was for me. He was such a delight to listen to, especially when he voiced the delightful dragon (who likes poetry)!
Also, not book-related, but Cumming-related, he's started a Stitch and Bitch at his newly opened club in New York https://www.lonelyplanet.com/news/2017/10/03/stitch-and-bitch-knitting-classes-n...

Simply marvelous! Alan Cumming is such a great narrator! It almost felt as though I was inside of a Jim Henson movie at some points! Highly, highly recommend!

Bookworm83 I would listen to Alan Cumming narrate an instruction manual. That accent 😍😍 8y

Dogearedcopy LOL, My dau and I listened to this a couple years ago and didn't realize the "boy" was actually a rabbit! Then there was a scene in which he cleans off his fur! o_O Thank goodness for cover art! ? 8y

BookNerdBritt Yay!!! 😁😁😁 8y

stargazerblue49 @Dogearedcopy I totally did the same thing! I eventually figured it out when the one character was introduced as a badger hahaha 8y

This is my 2nd year teaching 3rd grade and doing this book as a readaloud, and I think it will become one of my regulars. My kiddos LOVED this book. Every time I had to stop reading for the day I got a collective, "NOOOOO! ONE MORE CHAPTER!" There is a bit of violence (talk of killing dragons, swords, etc.) but this story, full of heart and humor, is about not judging people (or dragons) before getting to know them, friendship, and being yourself.
