Hullo Magic Wand ...
I enjoyed reading this poem written specially for children, into which you have managed to add descriptive words and explanations. I specially like the way Mom has to be convinced that all is well while they plan their next meeting.
There is nothing to suggest changing.
Love from .... Nanette Mary.

What a cute poem. It's easy to picture the little boy with his dragon friend, making up adventures. Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from adewpearl
strong rhyming couplets
good steady cadence in your lines when read aloud, which is good in a story poem
good alliteration in says we swap some scary and in flying foes, etc.
I wouldn't mind eating smores with a dragon LOL
Excellent fanciful detail that creates a delightfully imaginative story
good consonance of hard C sounds in camouflaged/books/stacked/
Brooke :-)

From you, a worthy review indeed. Thank you for the kind words.
Comment from Doc Holiday
A dragon as your best friend! What kid wouldn't love that?
You provided a laundry list of fun things kids can do with this dragoan along with where he could hide out. Sounds like you not only created a great poem for the kids to like, but also a survival guide for the dragon! Nice work!
Congrats on your recognition and All Time Best awards!

Comment from Eleanor Buron
I think children will love this poem. It's cute and reminds me of the song "Puff the Magic Dragon" - Children love imagery they can see and understand in their minds; I think the level of both is perfect.

Comment from Inge_Meldgaard
Super cute poem :D I did enjoy reading it very much - you have a real talent for this style. I love the concept and I'm sure kids would too.
One small thing I noticed, and which you might want to double check in the rest of the poem, and that's the rhythm seems a little uneven at times, particularly in this line:
Having saved the planet from some evil-doer's doom.
* This line seems to need two extra syllables in order to maintain the rhythm:
e.g.
Having bravely saved the planet from some evil-doer's doom.

Comment from DIS-illusioned
--"A dragon in my closet! Will my parents say, "Okay?"
The question mark should go after the closing quote.
--Good rhymes.
--Good children's fantasy story-poem. Great for a bed-time read, I believe. Good luck in the contest.

Excellent work on this poem; what a great little joy for the children. This was a playful and fun to read, well written and expressed. It reminds me of when I was a little kid. Keep up the fantastic work. Very well done!
