Zog

An eager young dragon works his way through Madam Dragon's flying school, collecting bumps, bruises, and gold stars, while a mysterious little girl keeps turning up to patch him back together.

For the kid who tries hard, falls down, and gets right back up again, Zog's clumsy determination will feel like a mirror.

• Big idea: Trying your best matters more than getting it right, and the people who patch you up along the way are worth paying attention to.
• Vibes: Bouncy, warm, and rhyming, with a school-days energy that mixes slapstick tumbles and gentle kindness.

• enjoy funny animal and dragon stories
• love rhyming text with a strong beat
• are working on trying again after a mistake
• respond well to a school-day, one-lesson-at-a-time structure

• Story details: What are some of the skills Zog practices at Madam Dragon's school?
• Feelings & empathy: How do you think Zog felt every time he got hurt trying something new?
• Character focus: Why do you think the little girl keeps coming back to help Zog?
• Real-life connection: Can you think of a time you kept practicing something even after you fell down or got it wrong?
• Imagination: If you went to dragon school like Zog, what skill would you want to learn first?
