Most Anticipated Book of the Week (Feb 19th – 25th, 2017)

Tell Me a Dragon by Jackie Morris| wearewordnerds.com

Tell Me a Dragon by Jackie Morris

Release Date: 2017-02-23

Everyone has their very own dragon, and this book describes many different varieties of the beast, showing in words and stunning pictures exactly why their owners find them so entrancing. They range from a dragon as big as a village to a tiny dragon with whisper-thin wings, from a snaggle-toothed dragon to a sea-dragon which races dolphins on the waves – ending in a page inhabited by every dragon in the book!

NEW FOR BACK TO SCHOOL – TELL ME A DRAGON TEACHERS’ NOTES BY PIE CORBETT*

Teachers’ Notes specially written by Pie Corbett to assist teachers and librarians in the promotion and teaching of Tell Me a Dragon by Jackie Morris in schools and to help foster a love of good books, literature and reading in children.
