The Boy Who Painted Dragons by Demi
5.0
Another beautiful book by Demi.
This is essentially a fairy tale about a boy gaining wisdom and facing his fears. Written with an obvious (but not overbearing) Buddhist influence, it uses the architecture and archetypal dragons of of China past. The illustrations are beautiful, shiny and bright. My 4 and 6 year old loved this.
Of note, Demi has written another book with a female protagonist that makes an ideal companion - The Girl Who Drew a Phoenix.
