My grandson (7) loves reading about this dragon!

What's the best part about this book?The dragon serves as an affable personification of one's unhelpful behaviors. Importantly, by levelling accusations of excess and addiction against the behaviors, rather than the whole human, the message is made more palatable to the reader.A sibling's child who can't stay off the Nintendo Switch asked to borrow this book from me. It can be a permanent borrow, as far as I'm concerned.As for the quality of this book to a parent or adult who might have to read it over and over, the rhymes, while not truly innovative, remain quite serviceable. In all, they waste no time in making this book an enjoyable read with a message whose time has truly come.

Our collection of My Dragon books is slowly but surely growing. My child fell in love with the books at school. It is challenging finding relevant, engaging books that teach Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) but these are the solution.

Grandson love these and are collecting them

We have several books in this series and they never disappoint. These are amazing to use as social stories and would highly recommend this for parents and educators. We purchased this one because our boys were having issues disengaging from their technology and since these have worked as social stories in the past, we tried this one out. Our 8 year old had no interest but our 5 year old LOVED it. And it was a great talking point about how much he's missing out on in the world when he hides inside on his tablet.If you're looking for a good book to teach your child about balance with technology, this is a great book to start the conversation. The boy asked his dragon to take a week long technology break and the dragon really didn't think he could do it. But as each day went on, he realized how much he was missing and how much fun he could have without technology. Once the week was up, he realized there was a healthy balance between using technology and enjoying the world around him.
