Dragons Love Tacos By Adam Rubin, Daniel Salmieri (Illustrator) Cover Image

Dragons Love Tacos (Hardcover)

By Adam Rubin, Daniel Salmieri (Illustrator)
$18.99

There is one VERY important piece of information to know before you read this book: Dragons HATE spicy salsa. They love tacos, but under NO circumstances can you give them spicy salsa….. So when you’re throwing a Taco Party for a group of dragons, keep this important information in mind. Dragons Love Tacos is the story of when that mistake is made….UH-OH. This book is ridiculously funny and a fantastic read-aloud for all…as long as you keep the spicy salsa away from any dragons!!!

And of course, don’t miss the sequel, Dragons Love Tacos 2!
