Wrapped in Eastern and Western dragon lore, this fantasy tale celebrates perseverance, cultural inclusion, and self-discovery.

It's the first day of Dragon School, where all the young dragons must learn how to harness their fire-breathing skills. Today's lesson? Using it to cook food! All the dragons are excited to test their powers... except Long. Long is from the East and can only breathe out water. No matter how hard he huffs and puffs, he isn't sure he can match his fire-breathing classmates. But will his talents be discovered? Or will Long find his own unique path to cooking—and to fitting in?

From Tofu Takes Time author Helen H. Wu and New York Times bestselling illustrator Mae Besom (What Do You Do With An Idea?) comes a gorgeously illustrated and stirring tale around self-discovery.
