From the publisher

“A nonstop dragon party . . . Irresistible.” –Publishers Weekly This wacky counting adventure by Geisel Award-winning author David LaRochelle is a hilarious ode to dragons and math, with pitch-perfect art by Lian Cho. High on a mountain live 100 mighty dragons all named Broccoli. When a tremendous wind blows half the dragons away, ten others sail off to become professional surfers in Hawaii. The oldest and youngest dragons take a train to New York City to start their own heavy metal band. And a mysterious wizard turns four more into a unicorn, a werewolf, a zombie, and a tiny pink poodle. Now how many dragons are left? Young readers will delight in following each and every dragon as they leave their home for marvelous adventures, until there is but one dragon remaining. That’s when this final dragon named Broccoli retreats to a cave for the winter and reappears in the spring with a surprise that will thrill and delight. Prepare to read again! “Plenty of giggles . . . This is one entertaining and silly way to do math.” –Kirkus”A hilarious, charming and extremely silly book. . . . A great addition to any child’s bookshelf.” –The Minneapolis StarTribune”So clever, so utterly silly and absurd, so delightful and so engaging.” –InfoDad.com”Colorful . . . Countable . . . Humorous . . . Lively.” –Booklist
