Danny The Dragon Meets Jimmy By Tina Turbin

A Review By Andrea R. Garrison – Online With Andrea

Danny the Dragon Meets Jimmy by Tina Turbin is a delightful story about a little boy by the name of Jimmy who finds a beautiful green and white shell. This is no ordinary shell. In fact it becomes quite extraordinary when Jimmy hears a voice that gives him a warm hello. The friendly voice in the shell is Danny the Dragon who eventually pops out along with his navigator, Skipper to have a very special visit with Jimmy and his family which includes sharing a meal, helping with clearing the table and doing the dishes and then having a wonderful time at play.

When I read this story it took me back to my childhood and the joy that I received in collecting shells and listening to what I thought was the sound of the sea. I always felt that an entire unknown world lived within the sea shells because of the sound that seemed to emanate from them. The imagination and the creativity of children is such a wonderful thing especially when it seems to come to life and to light in such a positive way. Danny The Dragon is friendly, cheerful, helpful and very polite. Danny The Dragon is a welcome visitor for any child and from the way it seems he will return with another adventure. Danny The Dragon is also available as a CD and DVD. The CD features an audio version of the book and ten wonderful original classical compositions by Ali Heinwein, Lisa Miller, Jason Turbin and Janis Welch. You can see why this wonderful story is a Best Books Award Finalist. Tina Turbin did a great job creating Danny an imaginary character that will add smiles to children and adults for many years to come.
