A new series about a curious, imaginative, playful little boy and his band of lovable stuffed-animal friends, reminiscent of Winnie the Pooh and Where the Wild Things Are.

Dragonboy is curious. He is playful, pensive, and kind. More than anything, he is himself: an imaginative little boy who loves to be a dragon. His stuffed animal friendsโ€”Darwin, Yellow Kitty, Simon, and Drakoโ€”are always by his side as he explores and discovers something new. Because the best part of an adventure is being with the ones who know you best.

The first in a new series, Dragonboy is the friend every child has been waiting for, a little boy full of empathy and joy who's ready to discover anything and everything our wonderful world has to offer.
