They have never met--and they like it that way. East Dragon is sure that West Dragon's huge wings mean that he is very, very strong. West Dragon fears that East Dragon's long, swishy tail means that he is very, very fierce. But when some meddlesome knights start a riff between their two kingdoms, East Dragon and West Dragon are finally forced to come face-to-fire-breathing-face. Might the two dragons finally discover they aren't so different after all? <p/>Detail-rich illustrations combine with a lighthearted, inspiring message to create a playful twist on the classic theme of fierce, fearless dragons. This story of friendship across cultures begs to be read again and again!<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Watercolor visions of both dragon realms combine traditional folk art and contemporary originality with cross-sectioned full-page images. Far-eastern architecture contrasts with European medieval castles, while modern technology, toys, and conveniences add a twist of the unexpected. Readers can search the pages for humorous scenes of modern comforts-a celebration with rock bands, karaoke, soccer for "tin" men and pizza for all. With an underlying message of the ills of prejudgment, this title should find a place in all libraries. <p/> --<i>School Library Journal, </i>March 2012<br><br><b>*</b>"Eversole's spare narrative mixes tongue-in-cheek exaggeration, childhood fears and adventure, inspiring Campbell to contrast the rough and the refined, designing detailed watercolor worlds brimming with humor and beauty. This primer on friendship wrapped in hijinks is paced for maximum pleasure." <p/> --<i><b>Kirkus Reviews</b>, </i>November 15, 2011, <b>*STAR</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Dr. <b>Robyn Eversole</b> is originally from Clarksburg, West Virginia, and now lives in Tasmania with her husband, Wayne; their daughter, Rebekkah; and various household members with fur, feathers, and fins.
