Description

Felicity the dragon may live near a castle and lounge in its moat, but she is not a typical dragon: “no smoke from her nose, no spikes on her toes, and her wings were too tiny to carry her hiney.” Because Felicity is small and different, she keeps to herself instead of playing with others. But one day, a small boy falls into the castle moat, and Felicity has the chance to help—and make some new friends in the process.

An enhanced ebook with audio narration is also available.

Felicity the Dragon by Ruthie Briggs-Greenberg tells the tale of a small dragon, who does not behave as the ferocious dragons do. Felicity feels very different and like she will never fit in with her peers, as her hobbies differ greatly from those of her fellow dragons.

One day while playing alone, as she always does, Felicity has the opportunity to utilize her differences for goodness and discovers that she can indeed make friends.

Felicity the Dragon is an adorable tale of triumph in the face of adversity and can serve as a tool to aid children with low self-esteem and those who feel odd and alone. In addition, the short story could be utilized to teach children about differences among peers as well as acceptance.

Being different can make children feel like they don't fit in and in this cute little story about Felicity the Dragon, that is exactly how little Felicity feels. She is small, her wings are small, and she is far from ferocious. Without giving away too much more, this is a great novel to teach kids they are important no matter what. Cute illustrations filled eyes with wonder and those who adore dragons will find it even cuter.

Children usually love dragons, so having a dragon as the main character in this story will delight them.

Felicity the Dragon by Ruthie Briggs-Greenberg tells the tale of a small dragon, who does not behave as the ferocious dragons do. She is small, does not have claws or breath fire, she is not big or mean. She feels different and that she will not fit in or that the other dragons will not like her. One day while playing alone, as usual, Felicity has the opportunity to use her talents to save a boy and make friends.

Felicity the Dragon is an adorable tale of how children with low self-esteem or that feel different, can triumph and make friends while being honest to themselves.

This short story can be used to teach children about differences among peers as well as acceptance of themselves and others. I was not sure about the pictures in this book. They were murky and not well defined, some aspects were hard to see.
