Sleeping Dragons All Around

In Sleeping Dragons All Around, a girl wakes up in the middle of the night and wants some cake. But to reach the refrigerator, she has to tiptoe past a host of sleeping dragons, like Priscilla in her pink pantaloons, the punk-rock dragon Fagan with his spiky green hair, and Beelzebub (who sleeps in the tub). When she stubs her toe, the dragons wake up, and she has to think fast to befriend them. Fitch's celebrated lipslippery poetry and Michele Nidenoff's colorful illustrations combine to make this one of the most delightful children's books ever published in Canada.

Sheree Fitch burst onto the children’s poetry scene with her celebrated book of nonsense verse Toes in My Nose in 1987. Since then, she has written 17 books for children and won numerous awards for her work, including the Mr. Christie Book Award, Marianna Dempster Award, Silver Birch Award, and Hackmatack Award. In 1998, she won the prestigious Vicky Metcalf award for a body of work inspirational to Canadian children. She has been goodwill ambassador for UNICEF since 1994.
