Kaida Brightscales and the Wise Owl

She feels like she’ll never fit in. When she learns how to calm herself with special breathing, will she finally have playmates again?

Kaida Brightscales loves to explore new places. So when the curious young dragon finds a secret doorway, she pokes her nose through it and tumbles down to Earth. But though she’s eager to make friends, the sweet creature burns a pie, scares a deer, and scatters a frightened flock of birds.

Running away and feeling ashamed, Kaida is surprised by a Wise Owl who asks what’s wrong. And after she tells him her fiery breath keeps everyone away, she’s delighted when he says he can help.

Can Kaida learn self-control and stop accidentally hurting others?
