My Barefoot Book Purchase: Herb The Vegetarian Dragon

   Awhile back, Barefoot Books was giving out $15 gift cards to everyone, to get a book from their site, for free!! I chose the book "Herb, The Vegetarian Dragon" and had a little bit left over to get the Niamh's Fairy Horse print and gifted to a friend.

   Herb, The Vegetarian Dragon book is so cute. I love the illustrations in it and Herb's heart. Even though the other dragons are trying to convince him to become a meat eater like them, to escape being captured, Herb stays true to himself and what he believes and everything turns out great in the end. A very cute read and you can do some fun activities with your little ones after. In the story, Herb makes a soup which he calls "Herbs Famous Lakewater Veggie Slurp" made of butter, leeks, onions and potatoes. This would be a fun activity to do with your child, making your own veggie slurp :) Or a sweet Dragon Fruity Snack. Or having them make their own paper dragon, like my son made below. You can get the printout for that HERE.

   

Lots of fun can come from Herb, The Vegetarian Dragon! Thank you Barefoot Books!
