This sweet book follows the good knight and his aventure with some little mosters. It is fun to see the Good Knight taking care of the little ones even from far off. Children would love this book and would be intrigued by all of the little monster's adventures. ( )

The old, old wizard asks the three little dragons to take care of his cats while he's away for the day. They're happy to do so, but the one problem is they can't read! So when it comes time to deciphering the wizard's care instructions, things go horribly awry. Luckily, the Good Knight is there to help them out.

This book is very funny, especially seeing the cats' reactions to the various things the dragons have them do -- like go swimming in the lake instead of giving them water to drink! The cartoonish illustrations are not usually my taste, but they work well with this silly story.

I shared this book with kids from a variety of age groups, and most seemed to enjoy the book and its humor. The book is part of series, but it seems to stand up pretty well on its own. ( )

The genre of this book is fantasy. It is a funny and light hearted story about three dragons who are taking car of the knights cats. They have a difficult time understanding the directions they were given and this causes some very funny moments. The illustrations in this book seem to be done with watercolors and possible ink wash in bright colors. ( )

Genre: Fantasy (fiction)

I would use this book to:
1. read to a class of Kinder of first graders to present reading
2. teach students about plot

Summary: This book is about three little dragons who are asked by an old wizard if they can take care of his cats while he is gone. The dragons agree to do so. The wizard leaves them a note on his table with the instructions. However, none of the dragons know how to read so they do what they think the pictures in the instructions indicate. They take the cats swimming, put them in a cupboard, take them camping, none of which they were supposed to do. Throughout the day the Good Knight asks the dragons what they are doing and seems worried. Then, the Good Knight does something about the situation and reads the note with the instructions. Finally, the dragons are able to follow the instructions correctly, After his return , the wizard rewards them with a kitten and the Good Knight gives them a book that will teach them how to read.
