Originally published on my blog: Nonstop Reader.

The Night Dragon by Naomi Howarth is a beautifully illustrated story for young readers (4-7 years). Written by Naomi Howarth and published by Quarto - Frances Lincoln with an anticipated release date 7th August, 2018, it's 32 pages and available in hardback format.

This is a gently written fable with an uplifting and encouraging message. The themes of friendship, teamwork, believing in oneself and encouragement are supported by the artist/author's exquisitely detailed whimsical art.

I adored this book. This will make a really wonderful bedtime story or reading circle book for preschool to second grade. The prose is sweet and simple. Mouse is Maud the dragon's best friend, cheerleader and partner.

Five stars. Just lovely!
