A fun, magical picture book story filled with humorous mishaps as Rago, a little wizard gets a pet… a most colorful, and quite unique, kind of dragon!

A young wizard named Rago always wanted a pet but wasn’t quite prepared when he got Zalon… a rather unique dragon! Now, what could possibly go wrong when a dragon learns spells? Or sneezes (fire)?

Through a series of funny and chaotic events, Rago soon learns that looking after a dragon is not easy—from finding a dragon-proof bed to discovering Zalon’s favorite food (hint: it’s smelly and blue).

“Well now, Rago knew dragons ate huge plates of food.
Then he thought, ‘Hmm, but what did they think tasted good?’
Old snake soup, maybe red spider cake, or bug pies?
Or sour pickles and cookies with toasted green flies?”

Can determination and the power of friendship help Rago and Zalon through such chaos?

This humorous and beautifully illustrated rhyming book will make children giggle and spark their imagination. It touches on friendship, acceptance, and perseverance, with fun vocabulary and challenging words to encourage your child’s love for reading.
