Albie dreams dragons... Some jewel-bright and fierce, some softly-scaled and whispery,
but whichever kind they are, they stay with him throughout the night and the next day too.
But the only trouble is that no one else can see Albie's dragons.
Or can they?
A very special picture book debut celebrating the imagination, with an emotional and reassuring message.
The Boy Who Dreamed Dragons, by award-winning Welsh writing talent, Caryl Lewis and illustrator Carmen Saldana, is perfect for any child who has felt different, whose imagination is big, and whose inner life is rich. With a stunning denouement celebrating connection, this is a book that will live on in the hearts and minds of its readers.
