Right away, a dragon moves in. The boy decides to befriend his dragon and they spend time roaming the shore, flying a kite, braving the waves, defying bullies, and roasting marshmallows—all while Dad is busy sunbathing and Mom is engrossed in her book. Unfortunately, no one believes the boy when he tries to share the news of this magnificent creature. That’s when the mischief begins, and the dragon becomes a force to be reckoned with. While adults will recognize the naughty antics as a ploy for attention, children will dissolve into giggles as the dragon devours every last sandwich, blows bubbles in the lemonade, and leaves claw prints in the brownies. Maybe the dragon really is running amok on the beach, or maybe it’s a little boy’s imagination that is running wild. Review: A book you will love just as much as your kiddos - My mom purchased this book for my boys that I just had to get on the kindle. The art is fantastic and my kids love the imagination behind a little boys day at the beach. When a Dragon Moves in is a tale about a family outing at the beach in which a little boy builds a sandcastle and through the use of imagination a dragon moves in causing all kinds of ruckus. When in fact it's the little boy causing trouble but using his imagination that the dragon is the one causing all the trouble. The artwork is phenomenal and the story is outstanding where children's using their imagination is the most important thing at their young age. I can't wait to pick up the next story in this series When a Dragon Moves in Again but we're gonna wait until Christmas. Great read for a bedtime story. Review: Sweet story, amazing illustrations - My son loves this book. The story is short and sweet. The illustrations are ANAZING. I thought it was a sweet story about a little boy’s imaginary dragon. I understand some parents’ concern about the little boy blaming the dragon for the things he’s doing, however, 1) The boy gets in trouble for these things, 2) By the end, he effectively puts his dragon (ie his “acting out” self) in time out until “he can learn some manners,” and 3) My 4 year old picked up right away that the boy was also being naughty, and he’s telling fibs by blaming it all on the dragon. He didn’t get the message from this that it’s okay to act out. If anything, he gleaned the opposite. So I suppose it depends on the individual kid, as well as the parent’s personal taste re: how strict you are with what your child is allowed to read about. If you feel any depiction of “naughty” behavior (such as sneaking brownies and blowing bubbles in your lemonade) is going to cause your child to act out, then I suppose this book isn’t for you. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 424 Reviews | ## Images ![When a Dragon Moves In - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71RBWulCZJL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A book you will love just as much as your kiddos *by J***A on September 2, 2015* My mom purchased this book for my boys that I just had to get on the kindle.
