“Help for Dear Dragon” was translated well and had a good storyline in addition to being a book for beginner readers.

Once again Margaret Hillert uses Dragon and his boy to help early readers develop fluency and independence with a simple and fun story. Dragon is not feeling well, so his boy puts him in his wagon and takes him to see the vet. She checks him over, gives him some medicine and they are on their way. Not only are there high frequency words, repetition and suggestions for parents and teachers to use the book, but it is multi-lingual with the story also in Spanish. If you have ELL students whose first language is Spanish, this would be a great book for them or for someone learning Spanish. The illustrations are large, bright and colourful to attract and hold the attention of the reader. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley.
