From the author of Lenny's Book of Everything, a deeply affecting, uplifting novel in which a girl finds refuge from her difficult home life while caring for an ailing baby dragon She didn't want to go home and that's why she found it. Avoiding the tension in her house, Pip spends her time digging around for treasure in the muddy creek. One night, a burst of colour catches her eye and Pip stumbles across something magical - a dragon. Tiny, possibly dying, but definitely a dragon. She quickly realises that dragons don't come with instructions: what do you feed a dragon? Where did it come from? And how can Pip cope with the enormous changes this creature will bring into her life? Full of enchanting magic and poignant truths, Dragon Skin is a moving story of friendship, family and finding a way to fly.
