Bookroo's summary

In a whimsical tale of love and chaos, two parents navigate the challenges of raising a baby dragon who can't help but breathe fire. Despite their exasperation, their love remains steadfast as they face the unexpected blazes he ignites. Can they find a way to manage his fiery nature, or will their home be forever at risk? Discover how love endures even when accidents happen, and explore the humorous trials of parenting a dragon who just can't control his flames.

From the publisher

Beloved picture book creator Mem Fox puts a fresh spin on a new baby book in this tender, funny story of unconditional love. Two parents love their brand-new baby dragon…even though he is always breathing fire (especially when he’s hungry or tired). Dragon tries his best not to set any more fires, but sometimes accidents happen. And when he unwittingly coughs up another flame while playing, what are his loving-but-slightly-exasperated parents to do? He is a baby dragon, after all!
