The Dragon in My Teapot (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798986867151)

Everyone has something that makes them truly shine - whether it's a sport, an instrument, a hobby, or a special kind of dream that no one else has ever had. For children, however, discovering that thing can take time, courage, and plenty of mistakes that are made along the way.

To help them overcome those hurdles and be the best that they can be, The Dragon in My Teapot is a whimsical and heartwarming picture book that was written to help children understand the important life lesson of how it's okay to stumble while working toward a goal.

Told from the perspective of the reader, the story begins when a tea-loving dragon accidentally crashes into the narrator's home and sets off a chaotic adventure to find the perfect place to live. Just like a hermit crab looking for its shell, the dragon goes from room to room in search of what he feels he's meant to find. Along the way, he makes a mess of nearly everywhere he goes - but in the end, he discovers a place where his own happiness and hidden talents begin to take shape.

Created to remind young readers that failure is never the end but is instead a stepping-stone on any journey worthwhile, this fun-filled tale is perfect for children ages 4-8 and encourages persistence, willingness to try new things, and having confidence in one's gifts no matter how long it takes to find them.

Whether shared as a bedtime story or read in a classroom setting, The Dragon in My Teapot sparks laughter, imagination, and meaningful conversations about perseverance and finding one's place in the world.

Educator-friendly, The Dragon in My Teapot is a fantastic resource for social-emotional learning (SEL), growth mindset lessons, and classroom story time, as this fun and thoughtful book was written to remind children that even the most challenging journeys can lead them to where they're truly meant to be.
