From the #1 New York Times bestselling creators of Grumpy Monkey comes a new character—part dragon, part dog, ALL FIERCE—in this hilarious, fire-snorting fantasy that celebrates friendship, courage, and the many forms fierceness (and fluffiness) can take.

When the evil wizard Simpkin Sowerbutts attempts to create a dragon as loyal as a dog and instead spawns a dog as fierce as a dragon, he banishes his embarrassing and so fluffy creation.

Outcast and alone, Dragon Dog roams the land looking for a home only to find foes around every corner. But Dragon Dog prides himself on being fierce—like a dragon—and defeats all who challenge him. Soon everyone in the land of Quatsch is afraid of him.   

Everyone except a lost little lamb named Dandelion.

Dragon Dog help his new friend find her way back to her flock, and Dandelion helps Dragon Dog embrace his fluffy side and find a place to call home. 

Oh yeah, and along the way they narrowly escape the jaws of the biggest, meanest dragon around.

An exciting and silly fantasy that shows readers we can be both fierce AND fluffy.
