Here Be Dragons

Review A brilliant example of what a picture book should be doing. ― Ireland AM MTV ‘Donnelly has […] made a splash in the picture book world with his vibrant, lively style. […] children will love ‘reading’ the pictures and being one step ahead of the knight at all times.’ ― Irish Independent ‘A funny, witty and engaging adventure is sure to prove to be a fun story time for young readers.’ ― ReadingZone “A glorious, rip-roaring, laugh-out-loud, girls-rule picture book from an exciting, creative duo!” ― Blue Bird Reviews 'A funny and subversive tale' ― Children's Books Ireland Product Description This book is about a knight on a mission: to find and slay a dragon. The other knights have told him that there's no such thing as dragons, but he doesn't care. For he has a map, and the map says: "HERE BE DRAGONS." He travels right to the spot marked ‘X’, past treasure, suspicious bones and many signs telling him to turn back. He wanders up and down a huge, spiky hill (the dragon's back) shouts into a burrow (the dragon's nose) and eventually walks into a cave (the dragon's mouth)… Will the hapless knight see the dragon before it's too late?! Young readers will love spotting the dragon in the background in this laugh-out-loud story from the author of This Book Can Read Your Mind.
