The girl and dragon who became best friends in Lovabye Dragon find each other again in this second oh-so-sweet tale.

In a game of hide-and-seek, Girl wanders too far. Dragon looks everywhere—every here, every there—but Girl is lost. Alone in the woods, she tries hard not to cry, but the silver tears come anyway. Then, with the special connection between truly devoted, very special friends, Dragon hears the beating of her trembly heart. With his bright dragon fire, he lights up the night, shining the way to a delightful reunion. “Evermore, evermore, I am here,” he assures her. Any child frightened by the night or feeling a tad lonely will relish the feeling of being wrapped in the protective wings of friendship.
The comforting friendship between a young girl and an enormous dragon deepens...A beguiling read-aloud for more than princess-and-dragon lovers.
—Kirkus Reviews

It's a noteworthy alternative to more commercially flavored princess stories.
—Publishers Weekly

Fans of the first book will welcome the chance to read about these two friends again.
