Sleeping Dragons All Around Author: Sheree Fitch (on JOMB)
Illustrator: Michele Nidenoff
Published: 1992 Doubleday Canada
ISBN: 0385253982

This fabulously fun nighttime expedition is essential bedtime reading for the toddler and preschool crowd. Full of crackerjack words, plenty of variety and a deceptively simple plot, our copy is worn ragged.

Hi Andrea and Mark,

I just want to let you know how much I’ve enjoyed the variety of books that you have shared. I’m loving the diverse topics and cultures :-) I am also very much looking forward to hearing your interviews with authors and hopefully to hear some of those authors reading their books. And finally, I can’t wait to hear more kids reviewing books!

JOMB could really turn out to be a family experience!

Have a good one.

Vivian!

Thanks so much for your fabulous positive feedback!!

I’m glad to hear that you like listening because we absolutely love talking about these books and interacting with listeners and authors is just making it unbelievably fun for us (as say in your CLIPpodcast, it’s yummy candy!)

I hope your little guy will send us his thoughts on a favourite book (maybe one of his favourite “space” books!)

Enjoy your day,
Andrea

I use to read Sleeping Dragons All Around to my children until we had all memorized the book…now I would like to read it to my two grandchildren and can’t find my worn out copy! Please does anyone have a place I could buy another one?
