It's Halloween, Dear Dragon

I love Dragon as a character and this Halloween book doesn't disappoint! Welcome back to your favorite children's series and enjoy the fall season with this book!

I really like the Dear Dragon books to teach youngsters to read. They are similar to the books I learned to read with, but seriously updated. The illustrations are fresh and when I read this with my grandson, he loved talking about the pictures and using them as clues for the words.

In this book a young boy and his dragon celebrate autumn with several activities. The raking and playing in the leaves were fun. They then dress up for halloween and go to a party where Dragon wins the best costume prize. A very simple story with repetitive words for our new readers. I love the extra things at the back for teachers and parents such as word lists, phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and reading comprehension activities. A great book for primary classrooms and family libraries.

Very Cute!  I really like the Dear Dragon books.  Love MCP too.  Have used their material for a long time with students to much success.  

A great fall early reader.  Starts out with come color recognition.  Then the boy and his dragon pick up fall leaves, pick out a pumpkin and decorate it, get costumes and go to a Halloween party.  

Big fan of the Reading Reinforcement section in the back with vocabulary connections.  It also has a list of 65 words used.  

I would use it with my beginning readers.  Highly recommended!

Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a digital copy to read in exchange for a review.

I've read a couple of the books in this series now, and each of them has been a sweet, simple read. The addition of the dragon makes it possibly more fun for kids to read along with.

Like all the "Dear Dragon" book series, it's great to work in class. I can't wait for Halloween to arrive to work with my students. Thanks a lot!

I have read the series for Dear Dragon, from the beginning, I think.  I have really enjoyed the book and as a teacher I have read it to my students over the years.  They have enjoyed the series as well. Great series!

This will be a great addition to the library. Kids love the Margaret Hillert books and having one on Halloween is even better. It's so easy to get a kid to read with these books. The kids are usually sold on reading them before I recommend them because the other kids love them so much.
