ABOUT THE BOOK

"Drag and Rex are extremely charming, endearing characters whom anyone would want to have as pals. . . The colorful, dynamic illustrations illuminate the friends’ warm, cozy relationship. Children will eagerly await these friends’ next riotous antics." —Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review

Best friends Drag and Rex are back to cook up oodles more fun in the second book in a charming buddy series that reads like a modern FROG AND TOAD.

Drag is a devoted, daring, and dreamy dragon. Rex is a precise, practical, and patient T. Rex. And together, they always have tons of fun.

Whether it’s coming up with the perfect Valentine’s Day present, making the tricky decision of what to cook for a delicious dinner, or helping remember that really important thing that’s just out of reach, as a team, they can face down any challenge.

But there’s one thing they’ll never forget: how great it is to have a friend you can count on.

Sweet and Silly features three stories told in short chapters, accompanied by bright, joy-filled full color illustrations, allowing developing readers to gain confidence and a sense of accomplishment as they giggle along with the silly antics of their favorite new friends.
