In this atmospheric picture book, a rainy day indoors turns into a fantastical journey to dragonland when Fred the elegant dragon arrives in need of a bathroom.
What's more perfect than a day on the sofa while the rain patters on the windows?
I'm just settling down with books, cocoa and my long-haired dachshund, when the doorbell rings. It's Fred the dragon, hoping to use the bathroom. There's nowhere suitable for a fastidious dragon. After rejecting all the usual places, Fred sweeps us off through the storm to a magical world of floating pagoda bathrooms.
Every beguiling detail in these illustrations evokes the snuggle of a cozy rainy day in a funny story that addresses the very necessary question of where dragons go when they need to go.
