After a day of bickering with her sister, might a magical journey on a dragon’s back show a girl the path to peace and reconciliation? This rhythmically written, beautifully illustrated picture book is a celebration of imagination, of kindness, and of dragons.
Tired from sister squabbles, a dragon-loving child slips into sleep. Soon a dragon just the right size whirs through her window to invite her on a flight into the enchanting night. They soar to a Secret Gathering where dragons carrying children from all around the world fill the sky. There are dragons. There is dancing. There are wishes. And is that her sister over there? Could they share the same wish?

"The starry, jewel-toned illustrations sparkle, creating a dreamy nighttime environment filled with fantastical dragons. Strong shapes and lines combine with the thoughtful use of negative space. Repetition of the word imagine punctuates the narrative, clearly written to emphasize the importance of harmony. Whimsical touches—message-bearing comets, stars that taste like marshmallows—add a dash of fun... enlivened by vibrant illustrations—and plenty of dragons."—Kirkus Reviews
"An imaginative nighttime rendezvous that delivers lessons in cooperation and conflict resolution."—Booklist
“Makes for a great read-aloud, a calming plot for a good night’s sleep, or, of course, a super awesome dragon book for fans of Wings of Fire or Dragon Kingdom of Wrenly… check it out, it’s a beautiful book!"—Youth Services Book Review
