Author:  Jodi Moore, Illustrated by Howard McWilliam

Collection:  Children’s EZ Books

A young boy builds a sand castle on the beach and a dragon moves in. The boy and the dragon spend the day at the shore flying a kite, braving the waves, defying bullies, and roasting marshmallows, while the boy’s parents remain occupied nearby with their own pastimes. When no one believes the boy’s story about the dragon, the creature launches into a mischievous mode and wreaks havoc on everything in its path– or is it all in the boy’s imagination?

“If you build a perfect sandcastle, a dragon will move in.”    Thus begins an enchanting new story which is perfect for mischievous little boys with big imaginations.  Who knew that having a dragon at the beach could be so much fun!
