Fans of How to Train Your Dragon will love this whimsical tale, the first in a series, by a Newbery Honor winner, featuring charming illustrations and pet "training tips" in each chapter.

Crusty dragon Miss Drake has a new pet human, precocious Winnie. Oddly enough, Winnie seems to think Miss Drake is her pet—a ridiculous notion!

Unknown to most of its inhabitants, the City by the Bay is home to many mysterious and fantastic creatures, hidden beneath the parks, among the clouds, and even in plain sight. And Winnie wants to draw every new creature she encounters: the good, the bad, and the ugly. But Winnie’s sketchbook is not what it seems. Somehow, her sketchlings have been set loose on the city streets! It will take Winnie and Miss Drake’s combined efforts to put an end to the mayhem . . . before it’s too late.

This refreshing debut collaboration by Laurence Yep, a two-time Newbery Honor winner and a Laura Ingalls Wilder Award winner, and Joanne Ryder features illustrations by Mary GrandPré.

No hair tugging!
Color: Purple
I've tried a few other electric razors over the years and have always been disappointed. I hadn't shaved in a long time and hoped this would make it easier but was prepared to be disappointed. I am thrilled to say it worked amazingly. I trimmed the hair with scissors, then just ran over the skin the with lowest trimmer which left a short stubble. No hair tugging at all which is always my biggest complaint. I did nick myself once (be sure to pull the skin taught) but I can blame the learning curve for that. The razor is small enough to get everywhere but wide enough to be efficient. It is light and the handle is easy to maneuver. I used it on dry skin so I don't know how it would be in the shower. It was easy to clean with the included brush. The whole thing probably took 5 minutes which is a huge improvement from going from scissors to a regular razor. Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

Blood Donors give less blood
Color: Gold &black
For the love of your hairy mansack use with caution!! After reading the description and reviews I thought I would take a chance on this cut free product. I couldn't fault the delivery as it arrived the same day. Bonus I thought a thought I lived to quickly regret! With eager anticipation I opened the package and set this gift from the hairless God's on charge. The charge time was fast and the product looked the part so with baited breath I took hold of this item and went 'downtown'.... The first few strokes were like a magician using a wand, pure magic! The trimmer effortless cut through its task in hand with precision and luring me into a sense of security that only can be achieved after several mishaps of various degrees. Oh little magic trimmer what a wonderful false sense of glee you were providing. With a new sense of bravery and belief like no other I went a little further south to smooth out the mansack like never before.. Holy Mother of Jesus hear my prayers!! Save me from this massacre that was unfolding before my eyes!! The trimmer took off its sheep's clothing and revealed the real evil within! With precision it ate up my mansack with ruthlessness never witness before. The cuts were quick and endless, the snagged skin becoming more and more frequent. The blood dripping now was making the task at hand more difficult but undeterred by the great reviews I kept going believing it was my fault just a bad technique. We will prevail! Alas prevail turned into survival and a soon to be found fetal position praying for my man parts to heal from their recent brush with a back street castration. I'm sure it's just operator error and maybe once healed I will accept the challenge again to wield this clippers and be the smooth operator it promised. In the meantime I would recommend buying several large packets of bandaid to get you through the blood donation you're about to give. On a plus side it cleaned up pretty nice and easy so all in all I'll give it 5 stars along with the body parts it took all by itself!!

Works great for 6 months, then gets dull
Color: Gold &black
Worked very well initially. Easy to charge, no nicking or pulling. But after about 6-7 months it got noticeably less sharp, with only moderate use (once every couple of weeks). Now at about a year out from purchase it’s much harder to get a close trim. Currently debating whether to simply buy a new one of the same version or switch up brands. Bottom line if you want something cheap and dependable for 6 months, go for this. If you want something that lasts longer, maybe opt for a higher price point.

I love this product 💖💕
Color: White
Title: Smooth, Easy to Use & Perfect for Sensitive Skin ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m really impressed with this 3-in-1 bikini trimmer from ANYLIV! It’s lightweight, easy to hold, and works gently without pulling or irritating the skin. The different attachments make it super convenient for multiple areas, and the results are smooth and clean every time. I also love that it’s quiet, rechargeable, and compact enough for travel. Great quality for the price and very beginner-friendly. Definitely a must-have for personal grooming!
