Rezensionen
"Rothman and Oswald s delightful sequel rightly captures the thrills and vexations afflicting all new readers. Now it s the Underwear Dragon s turn in the spotlight, and shine he does. The stylized artwork, meanwhile, retains its ability to provoke laughs and sympathy in equal measure. Hooray for the Underwear Dragon!" --Kirkus Reviews

"Readers will likely take [the story] in stride, along with Rothman s casually rhymed prose, for the entirely ridiculous sight of a dragon in underpants blundering clumsily through Oswald s cartoon illustrations. Both the fundamental value of literacy and the old principle of getting the right book to the right reader, every librarian s goal, shine as brightly as ever." --Booklist
