**WINNER OF THE BARNES & NOBLE PICTURE BOOK AWARD AND OVERALL CHILDREN'S BOOK AWARD**

**Children's Indie Book of the Month August 2026**



The picture book world's answer to How to Train Your Dragon, Impossible Creatures and Raya and the Last Dragon - crossed with The Great British Bake Off!



Ember has always been different from the other dragons. His fearsome roar sounds more like a polite sneeze, and when he breathes fire, the villagers just pat his head and say awwww.



Ember fears he'll never collect a respectable hoard of gold until a chance encounter with a baker causes his fortunes to turn (and his stomach to grumble). As the little dragon soon discovers, the gold you make is way better than the gold you steal - and gold that is shared? That's best of all.



- Perfect for kids who love magic, fantasy and baking!

- Themes of sharing, self-confidence and trying something new.

- With luminous, enchanting illustrations and glowing golden panels throughout.

- A perfect readaloud for bedtime or brunchtime!

- For fans of The Cafe at the Edge of the Woods, funny fairytales and fantastic beasts.
