The Dragon,The Lonely Man and The Good King book review I have a 4 year old son who absolutely loves this book and he asks me to read it to him over and over again.My son loves it because it has a dragon and swords and he asks tons of "why" questions when we are reading it.I like it for that very reason!It makes for a great teaching time about good vs. evil, among other things.I also like it because it is a story about hope,faith and redemption.I highly recommend this book for children as well as adults!
The dragon the lonely man and the king I liked the book because of it's attractive color scheme. The story was thought provoking, and had a moral message,without seeming to "preach a message". I especially loved the great drawings, Michelle is a talented artist. Children in the age range of 4-9 would love to read this book over many times.
excellent read for the young ones... I enjoyed this book very much. It has wonderful illustrations and the simplicity of the story is great for children. I know that parents will approve of this book. It can also help the young ones to read for themselves and teach them about determination and courage. love it!!
Very good story I enjoyed this book, because it reminded me about the great stories from the bible and of being brave and honest and holding strong to our faith and the drawings are very beautiful.
