by Chelsea M. Campbell (Author), Charlene Chua (Illustrator)
Perfect for fans of Dragons Love Tacos and We Don't Eat Our Classmates, this hilarious picture book is sure to become a favorite storytime read-aloud in every little reader's library--human or dragon.
The human school is full, but don't worry, there's a spot waiting for you at the local dragon school! Even though you might not have scales or wings or the ability to breathe fire, with a little bit of courage and your own special talents, you'll have no trouble fitting in. Even if your classmates are a little bit... toothy.
Author Biography
Eisner Award-winning author Chelsea M. Campbell grew up in the Pacific Northwest, where it rains a lot. And then rains some more. She finished her first novel when she was twelve, sent it out, and promptly got rejected. Since then she's written many more novels, earned a degree in Latin and Ancient Greek, become an obsessive knitter and fiber artist, and started a collection of glass grapes. As a kid, Chelsea read lots of adult books, but now that she's an adult herself (at least according to her driver's license), she loves books for kids and teens. Besides writing, studying ancient languages, and collecting useless objects, Chelsea is a pop culture fangirl at heart and can often be found rewatching episodes of The Office, listening to her favorite podcasts, or dying a lot in Dark Souls. When You Go to Dragon School is her picture book debut.
