Description

The king's battles with the dragon were always mighty and loud. Boy lived in silence and couldn't hear the fighting. But Boy could see the fear around him . . . and how everyone would be much happier without it.

Critical Reviews

"Cummings' fable rolls out with poetic economy, heightened by Devries' spacious page design. ... Deftly persuasive." -- Kirkus Reviews

"This whimsical read-aloud is a good way to spark conversations about conflict resolution and good communication. A solid addition for most picture book collections." -- School Library Journal

"Boy is deaf and one day he runs into the middle of a battle... slight chaos ensues. The cute drawings make it a lovely read, but the deep message of diversity and the need for communication, all kinds of communication, is strong and ever-present. Charming story!" -- Children's Book Council Bulletin
