“One day, Draggy decided, out of the blue,
That to scare innocent people he no longer wished to do.
He would put out his fire and keep his mouth shut,
And no longer remain in the scary dragon’s rut.
But what will he do now? How will he loom large?
All eyes are on Terrible Draggy, waiting for him to charge.
And all he really wants is to find a lovely dragon lass
And build with her a little home on a little patch of grass.”

“A children’s book with mature intentions. I love the little dragon who experienced a change, a change that is not easy, to stop burning and be kind = different and special. With a loving friend who supports him in the essential change. I recommend the book to all the little “dragons” who discover a difficult change, but it is also possible and rewarding. For them and their parents who support them in the blessed change.”

“You will have to read this lovely book! The book enables a conversation with children about social pressure, about the possibility of change and that change, even if it is difficult, is blessed. The story and the lovely drawings that match the text captured the hearts of my grandchildren who did not leave the book all weekend! At the end of the book there are two coloring pages that definitely add interest.
I Highly recommend!”
Review by Panina Aharonov at “Nurita” book reviews website

“A wonderful book for children that provides insights and morals that adults can also adopt. The fear of not being accepted, the lifestyle of doing what is expected even if it goes against the inner self, the desire to please and be loved because of conventions established by society. Bottom line: First of all, love and believe in yourself. Do only what is good for you and not what you think will make others love you. Those who love you will continue to love you even with all your shortcomings. Highly recommended!”

“‘Draggy the Dragon’ is essentially a children’s book, however, in my opinion, it is in fact – in its insights and the wide-ranging intellectual morality it contains – a novel for adults: thick-skinned, incredibly smart, and above all – multiple meanings, duality and symbolism. This is one of those books that while reading them, and upon the end of reading them, the reader will better understand their genius and depth, and at the same time, the many-faceted textual ambition that are hidden in them.”
