This stunning picture book is one for every child... eloquent and lyrical * Sunday Times *
A powerful message about sharing and cooperation underpins this colourful, old-fashioned fable * Daily Mail *
A gently satirical and gorgeously illustrated fable -- Amanda Craig * New Statesman *
This story carries a poignant message for modern times, beautifully packaged as a classic fairy tale. Children will understand that sharing what you have with others is far more enjoyable and productive than being at war. The intricate watercolour illustrations have much to explore, with the graceful dragons as the stars of the show * BookTrust *
With its dramatic watercolour illustrations, this fable has much to say about our 21st-century world and the way in which leaders operate -- Jill Bennett * Books for Keeps *
