Worries, fears, and anxieties are personified as dragons that can overwhelm anyone, including children. A young boy grapples with his own dragons, learning that while he can try to ignore them or view them as harmless, facing them directly each day is more effective. Support from his mother provides comfort, and the story emphasizes that these dragons are temporary. The book offers practical advice for managing stress and encourages conversations about coping strategies, making it a valuable resource for both children and caregivers.
Something Else tries to be like the others. But he's different. And no matter how hard he tries, he just doesn't belong. Then Something turns up and wants to be friends. But Something Else isn't sure he's like him at all . . . Kathryn Cave's poignantly simple story is brought to life by Chris Riddell in this enchantingly original picture book.

In dieser witzigen und temporeichen Geschichte geht es um zwei Hündchen: Schmuddel, den Anna von der Straße aufnimmt, und Sam, der dem Kaiser geschenkt wird. Eine folgenschwere Verwechslung führt zu turbulenten Ereignissen.
