Re: I have a question for the librarians and don't remember who is one!!

Thanks for the responses ladies - I have been crazy the past two days and not on much!

Here's my question - is there some sort of advanced library search system to find a book by description if I don't know the name?

There is a children's book (picture book) that my brother and I LOVED growing up. I don't remember the title or author - I have tried to google some details, but doesn't work...

It's about a boy who has a dragon as a pet and the dragon keeps getting bigger and busts out of the house and the only other part we remember is that the dragon takes a whole truck full of Buttercup BreadChat Icon Chat Icon

We had it when we were little, so figure it's from 1970's or 80's.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!!Chat Icon Chat Icon

Well, I've searched some picture book databases as well as looking at sites that have out of print books. it's really tough without title/author, but I'll do my best.

Still looking.....

I actually e-mailed a friend of mine who is a children's librarian (I'm more in adult services), and gave her your info. Will keep you posted.

I'm a children's librarian in Suffolk.

Is this it?

Kent, Jack. There’s No Such Thing as a Dragon

A few libraries in Suffolk county have the book in their collections.
