Dragolin

Reach for this book when your child starts comparing their physical abilities or appearance to their peers and feels they are coming up short. It is a gentle remedy for the 'I can't do it' phase or for children who feel like they are lagging behind in the developmental milestones their friends seem to master with ease. Dragolin follows a small, plump dragon who lacks the fire-breathing prowess of his kin, leading him into a state of deep self-doubt and isolation. Through his journey, the story moves from the pain of comparison to the power of internal belief. It is a wonderful choice for children ages 4 to 8 who need to understand that their worth isn't defined by how well they mirror others. By the end, the book reinforces that self-confidence is a spark that starts from within, helping children navigate feelings of loneliness and physical inadequacy with hope.
