Nate the Dragon Stops Bullying

Nate the Dragon Stops Bullying

Kim M Grosh 

Nate and his two friends, Brian and Joe, encounter King Collin in the legendary kingdom of Treegrass. The kingdom has been placed under a dismal spell because the king insists on being a bully. To bring hope back to the fantasy world of Treegrass, the youngsters stand up to King Collin so they can bring happiness, which will break the spell. Nate the Dragon has a magical way of solving problems as he and his friends eagerly undertake this quest. They know they have to restore happiness and joy to Treegrass and all of the ducks and geese that live there.

  1. That looks like a good book. Dragons and magic seem to be popular subjects for children. From looking at the cover, I'm guessing the illustrations are awesome. I'm not sure it falls under realistic fiction though. I don't think the animals are supposed to have human traits to fit in this genre.

  3. I love the idea of animals talking about bullying and for kids to see that bullying can even happen to animals...:0) Also, I can already see my students being super excited about the magic part of the story...so intriguing to them! Thanks for sharing!
