Donner isn't like the other dragons. The other dragons play and use their fiery breath all day long. Donner prefers to play with his friend, Una the Unicorn. He doesn't use up his fire every day. All the other dragons make fun of him. His brother is embarrassed and his father is ashamed. But Donner doesn't cave to their taunts. Then one day all the unicorns and dragons except Donner go into a cave and play. But the ice breaks and traps them inside. All the dragons have used their fiery breath in their games, and they can't get out. Donner is the only one who can save them, and because he saved his fire for the right time and the right place, he becomes their savior and their hero.
Donner the Western Dragon is a great story focused on not caving to peer pressure, and not being afraid of doing what is right. The illustrations are beautiful colorful watercolors. Donner will enchant kids ages 4+
