The Bookworm by Debi Gliori

Max really wants a pet. His parents aren't so sure. Puppies chew, parrots screech and sharks have too many teeth. How about a dragon? Max's parents say that dragons don't exist, so Max settles for a pet worm instead. Except this particular worm turns out to be very unusual when its back begins to turn spiky and it begins to breathe smoke … Dragons don't exist. Do they? A funny and light-hearted story from much-loved children's author Debi Gliori, perfect for any child who has ever wanted a pet. With an added cautionary tale about being careful what you wish for.
Unique in its concept, as well as its play on words The Bookworm validates Debi Gliori’s understanding of how the minds of little ones think and imagine * Armadillo Magazine *
A lovely story made even more charming by the exquisite illustrations * Creative Steps on ALFIE IN THE GARDEN *
It is simply delightful, utterly heart-warming and brimful of hope * Library Mice on DRAGON LOVES PENGUIN *
There is gentle humour and images of those moments in family life that we can all recognise and everyone will love * Courier Magazine *
