The Dragons Are Singing Tonight by Jack Prelutsky, illustrated by Peter Sis, 1993.

This is a picture book of poems about dragons, but that description doesn’t quite do the book justice.

Jack Prelutsky is best known for his books of humorous poems for children, but not all of the poems in this book are funny. Some of them are humorous or have humorous twists, but others are just about the magic and wonder of the idea of dragons, some of which only exist in the imagination. Sometimes, just believing in magic or imagining it can be magical by itself!

The pictures are all excellent, colorful, and fanciful, and they really bring the poems to life. The book is larger than average, and the pictures span full pages.
