- Biografia breu
- “Stephen Cosgrove didn’t really take up the writing challenge until after he went searching for a reasonably priced, fun to read, book that had a message of sorts for his 3 year old daughter and only finding expensive hard covered books with not a story in them that he was looking for. That was in 1973, by 1978 he had sold over three million books.
Born and raised in the Northwest of USA, he now lives in San Antonio, Texas, and continues in a number of projects one such -developing web-enhanced stories. Stephen has written about 325 books for the first reader to young adult thrillers. All his books have a value-based issue in the story line.
Stephen Cosgrove says…”The internet is a wonderfully designed box, no more no less. Unless that box is filled with content, it is just that, a wonderfully designed box” .

I recall that when I first came across a copy of this book at a library sale, I absolutely couldn’t resist the adorable picture on the cover. This turned out to be a really sweet story. Little Dragolin is so sad that he can’t make fire, but with help from the armadillo, he learns to believe in himself and eventually succeeds. The story has a great message for kids about believing in one’s ability to do something, but not pushing yourself to do things you weren’t made to do. As I mentioned, it was the cover that drew me to the book and all the illustrations are just as cute and whimsical, complementing the story well while eliciting emotions from readers. Dragolin is just too adorable for words. The sweet pictures might draw the interest of younger readers, and the story is perfectly appropriate if an adult reads aloud to them. However, the text is written in paragraphs with a little more challenging vocabulary that would probably be better suited to older kids in the second to fourth grade range who are able to read more independently. Overall, this is a great book with a lovely morality lesson that I think kids will enjoy.… (més)
