"There’s nothing a dragon loves more than gold, and there’s nothing I love more than a good picture book. At the heart of this story is Ember, a tiny dragon whose hoard of gold comes in the form of freshly baked bread. A sweet tale about friendship and perseverance, The Bakery Dragon is a wonderful treat for the fiercest (and sweetest!) of readers."
"This is such a beautiful book! The imagery is buttery and warm, just like a bakery should feel and the story is sweet and heartwarming - a perfect addition to your regular story time rotation."
"What a great message for kids! Sharing is better with friends and it's even better with yummy pastries! The art by the author/illustrator is so beautiful and the dragons are too cute."
"The art is beautiful, the story is beautiful, and I'm ready to be Ember's assistant baker."
"An absolutely adorable and charming story!! This book is as warm and inviting as a fresh-baked loaf of bread."
"Ember is the cutest little Baker dragon you’ll ever meet. This cozy and sweet picture book will both inspire and entertain little ones. With gorgeous and cinematic illustrations, this is one is a real treat for story time."
"""Bakery Dragon"" is a delightful story about a dragon who feels out of place among his friends. It reveals that gold is not always what it seems; instead, it emphasizes the importance of how we use it. Ultimately, kindness, sharing, and friendship are the true treasures."
