A very special picture book debut celebrating the imagination, with an emotional and reassuring message.
Albie dreams dragons... Some jewel-bright and fierce, some softly-scaled and whispery, but whichever kind they are, they stay with him throughout the night and the next day too. But the only trouble is that no one else can see Albie's dragons. Or can they?
