Description

That's What Dragons Do tells the tale of two little girls whose playtime adventures are as wild and imaginative as their dreams.

Rarr! I’m a dragon. I can roar! I can fly! I can swish my tail! And I can make fire in my mouth ... Rraaaarrr! Because that’s what dragons do!

Their play gets increasingly rowdy, featuring everything from dragons to fire trucks, cupcake fairies to digger-dumper drivers, and even spaceships.

However, just when the excitement reaches its peak, in comes Daddy to tuck them in and turn out the light ... because that’s what Daddies do!
