Sail Away Dragon

32 pp. | Candlewick | October, 2017 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-7313-0 $15.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Randy Cecil. After both dreaming of adventure, Dragon and Girl (Lovabye Dragon; Evermore Dragon) set sail to find the "far-est Far Away." The duo's journey--from home to away and back again--proceeds in playful language that often repeats sounds and words for a quality read-aloud. Muted, textural illustrations give the story, which includes a wink to Lear's "The Owl and the Pussycat," a dreamlike quality.
