Jeanette Stampone - Dragon Guest Handbook

Illustrated by Novia Heroanto
Published by Wombat Books

You should always be prepared for when a dragon tourist lands in your backyard.

​Your visitor will need to meet the family, learn table manners and go sightseeing. Will you qualify as a top host? 
 
While this hilarious book is full of silliness, it also explores language barriers and non-verbal communication.  The heartwarming ending leaves readers with a beautiful message of embracing differences, and how a hug has universal meaning.
