Adam hates first grade--he's having trouble learning to read, and the class bully makes fun of him because he's chubby. Then Adam meets a little dragon who's unhappy because he's no good at dragon things. A special friendship is born, and with the dragon's help, Adam learns to like school and to make the bullies disappear.
A smart, pudgy, shy kid and a runty, underdog baby dragon form an unlikely friendship which boosts the self-esteem of both. Although I last read it about 13 years ago, I still remember this book. It's an exciting kid's book with a message. (Wish _I'd_ had a dragon friend when I was in junior high!)
