A Rainy Dragon Day
What’s more perfect than a day on the sofa while the rain patters on the windows?
I’m just settling down with books, cocoa, and my long-haired dachshund, when the doorbell rings. It’s Fred the dragon, hoping to use the bathroom. There’s nowhere suitable for a fastidious dragon. After rejecting all the usual places, Fred sweeps us off through the storm to a magical world of floating pagoda bathrooms.
Every beguiling detail in these illustrations evokes the snuggle of a cozy, rainy day in a funny story that addresses the very necessary question of where dragons go when they need to go.

Reviews
Booklist
“Beautifully illustrated in a way that doesn’t just invoke dreary rainy afternoons, with water stains and colors that blend together at the edges but will also remind readers of a kind of comfortable lethargy that can cover a town or neighborhood on drizzly days.”—Booklist
Kirkus Reviews
“A unique bedtime story—before the nightly bathroom visit.”—Kirkus Reviews
