Book Review: Kitty and Dragon by Meika Hashimoto, Gillian Reid

Kitty and Dragon is a collection of three easy readers stories written by Meika Hashimoto and illustrated by Gillian Reid. Kitty and Dragon are best friends, even when one of them is snoring, being messy, or having a sad day. Even though they are quite different from one another, Kitty and Dragon have learned that there’s nothing better than being together, just the way they are.
Kitty and Dragon is a sweet collection of short, fairly simple stories about how Kitty and Dragon became friends and how they find solutions ad help each other trough things like getting sick or cleaning up. The illustrations are clean and bright, cute and easy to find little details that add to the story. The themes of friendship, compromise, understanding and looking past other people's expectations are in the book. However, the basic lessons never overwhelm the simplicity of the cute artwork and the main story of friends finding each other and working things out. I think there are many young readers that will enjoy this series of stories, but find that there is nothing that really made them stand out for me in the large number of cute, fun readers.
