5.0

The artwork in this book was beautiful. The mom in the book encourages her son to go to two different wise women (his grandmothers) to learn about dragons. His grandmothers talk about two very different dragons. The young boy in the book is a biracial child and the dragons can serve as metaphors for the two different cultures that live inside of him.
