Where It All Began
Picture Book Edition
Everyone knows that a dragon’s duty is to fiercely guard the princess, right? Well, meet Nickerbacher, a witty young dragon who would rather slay with laughter than with fire. Humorous guardian of the beautiful Princess Gwendolyn (for whom he performs daily comedic routines!), Nickerbacher aspires in his heart to become a stand-up comedian in the big city. There’s just one problem: Papa Dragon is staunchly opposed to the idea, insisting that dragons are “not supposed to make people laugh,” dragons are “supposed to scare them.”
What to do when your dreams go against the expectations of family or society? How do you follow what you know in your heart to be true when others don’t see it? Find out as Nickerbacher flies off to the big city to follow his dream—and nearly brings down the house in his first on-stage performance!
Beautifully illustrated and cleverly written, Nickerbacher: The Funniest Dragon provides one chuckle after another while delivering a powerful message to children: The way to happiness is to follow your dreams, and the courage shown in doing so may sometimes melt even the strongest opposition.
Feathered Quill Book Awards says: Nickerbacher, The Funniest Dragon is a unique twist on the theme of staying true to your dreams.
