Customers Review:

Drake was born with a lame wing, but it doesn’t stop this colorful and playful little dragon from seizing the day and going on a much anticipated adventure in spite of his handicap. He runs into a little trouble along the way, but his courage and determination get him through it all, because he is loved so much!Drake is such an inspiration! He shows that no matter who we are or what disabilities we may have or think we have, can be overcome if we choose to believe in ourselves. We can all accomplish any of our desires!I love this beautifully written sweet story with all of the rhyming and gorgeous illustrations!I highly recommend this for children of all ages (special needs and others) as well as adults who still enjoy the little magical things in life. It will brighten and warm your heart! As an adult, I was delighted by it so much, I purchased 4 copies as gifts! After reading it a second time, I plan to buy more to share and donate. So very pleased!!! ♥️
Beautifully written and illustrated, meaningful content.
Sky Dragon is a story of Drake, a young dragon with a clipped wing. I love that Drake does not let his handicap stop him from enjoying life and getting himself out of trouble. Written in fun rhyme, Sky Dragon is filled with a little dragon doing the normal things dragons do, until an accident causes him to fall into danger. The lovely bright colors and simple text are perfect for young readers. I like how Drake perseveres and overcomes his physical challenges. This book can easily be used to open discussions about others who are not like us or how we can work through our own challenges.
This children’s book tells a wonderful story about overcoming difficult circumstances. It teaches the importance of perseverance and not giving up. I look forward to seeing more from James Blackburn! Also, huge shoutout for the amazing art!
Ordered 3 copies of the sky dragon book. I love the story. I would recommend this book to anyone!
Excellent rhyming and unique story that was appropriate for both my four and six year old. The story also opened conversation with my children about how everyone can look different and be different but the right attitude is shown through perseverance.
While I love Drake the dragon and appreciate his perseverance despite a physical abnormality (a clipped wing), I found the narrative lacking in cohesion and the story falling flat—Maybe it was trapped a bit by the rhyme it was written in? Despite, I do applaud the protagonist wholeheartedly! We need more stories featuring unique protagonists.
