The Christmas Dragon — Marta Provencio

When Julian Rowan sits on Santa's lap before Christmas, he has just one request. He doesn't know if Santa can deliver this gift, but Julian wants a dragon.

On Christmas Eve, to his surprise, Santa Claus arrives with the gift and very special instructions for the care and nurturing of his gift-his very own dragon. To Julian's surprise, his wish is even better than he had imagined. Now he has a new and special toy that will love him and care for him in return.

With colorful illustrations by Hector Vega, authors Marta Provencio and Rowan Julian Patterson tell the story of the little boy Julian and a dragon named Alexander-the story of a wish that comes true and a friendship that will last a lifetime.
