Maurice is unlike the other dragons: he is not frightening and has no interest in breathing fire, snarling, or growling. Flowers are what he loves most. His difference raises the question of whether the other dragons will accept him as he is. Set in a world of dragons and magic, the story considers being an outsider, self-acceptance, and the many forms bravery can take.
