When you're a baby dragon...Don't Sneeze!

De: Steven Doornbos

Welcome to Maple Ridge, where porch lights double as beacons, a beagle named Pudge believes he’s head of security, and a kid named Calvin discovers that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stand still together.
When a sneeze-prone baby dragon—Blaze—crash-lands into Calvin’s ordinary life, the trio stumbles into an old mystery: cave carvings that act like instructions, a “consultant” with nets and nice manners, and a town that has to decide what kind of story it wants to live in.
With humor, heart, and a dash of DIY science, Calvin, Pudge, and Blaze learn to turn light into a shield, neighbors into teammates, and worry into plans. This is a middle-grade adventure about friendship, found family, and the kind of courage that looks a lot like community.
Tag line: “When you’re a baby dragon…don’t sneeze!”

Calvin didn’t mean to find a dragon—especially one that sneezes fire. But once Blaze tumbles into his backyard (and Pudge’s very serious beagle jurisdiction), hiding him becomes impossible…especially when a smooth-talking “wildlife consultant” shows up with nets, rules, and the wrong idea of safety.
Following strange symbols in a cave and a town’s lantern-lit traditions, Calvin discovers a secret under the falls and a way to outsmart a relentless foe: four lights and a center—geometry, but glowing. As the catcher closes in, Calvin must rally friends, neighbors, and one extremely enthusiastic beagle to protect what matters most.
Packed with humor, clever puzzles, cozy campfires, and big set-pieces, The Curious Adventures of Calvin, Pudge and Blaze, the Friendly Dragon is a heartfelt, non-violent adventure about community bravery, problem-solving, and the magic of choosing to be the lantern.
Perfect for fans of warm, witty fantasy with real-world courage, ages 8–12 (and read-aloud families).
