Summary: This story was about a little boy and his dragon at a lake. The story is all rhyming. The little boy and the dragon are trying to find a treasure from their treasure map. The dragon does not know water safety so the little boy teaches him. Some of the things the little boy teaches for example are to never swim without tell your parents you are going into the water, to always swim with a buddy and to watch the signs when swimming.
Evaluation: I thought this was a important story for children to read. All of the drawings in this book are colored with colored pencils. I think this is an interesting style and it seems to be relatable to kids because they will be able to tell it is done with colored pencils. The rhyming scheme used in this story is cute and keeps the readers attention because of the rhythm it provides. I like how the teach lessons during the story and end the end of the book they have a checklist of water safety guidelines that a parent should go through with their children.
This is a great book to teach kids about water safety in a fun way! -------Amanda Tarantino
