Jayne's Dragon (Paperback)

In a world where every person has a small dragon to help them stay safe, Jayne's dragon becomes a little too big and Jayne starts to feel afraid all of the time. Jayne finds herself afraid to do all the things she loved to do before, like going to school or playing at the park with her friends. Through hard work and the guidance of the Dragon Master, Jayne learns how to shrink her dragon back down to size and return to her fun adventures. Jayne reminds us that we all experience worry and fear sometimes. This brightly illustrated story follows Jayne's journey from difficult times filled with anxiety, through marshmallow fights, detective work, and much more. In the end, she finds her way back to enjoying life's adventures instead of fearing them, with her happy little dragon by her side. As a read-aloud for younger children or a book to read independently for older readers, Jayne's dragon invites readers to look at their own worries and anxieties in a new way. At the end of the book are blank pages where children can explore their own dragons through pictures, notes, or writing.
