Winnie’s Midnight Dragon by Valerie Thomas


Thomas, Valerie and Korky Paul Winnie’s Midnight Dragon
. Harper Collins Publishers, 2006. $16.99.  PICTURE BOOK.  This book tells a story of Winnie the witch, who goes to bed at midnight (because that is always when witches go to bed).  However, shortly after Winnie goes to bed, a baby dragon shows up inside Winnie’s house.  The story tells of how the witch gets the dragon out of the house and helps it find its mother (getting the dragon out of the house is anything but easy). The illustrations are annoying to look at, and the story itself is too weird and pointless. This book has few redeeming qualities to it.  EL, MS – NO. Brent Smith, Reading Teacher.
