Mikey and the Dragons

Book • 2018
Mikey and the Dragons is a timeless tale by Jocko Willink that follows the story of Little Mikey, a boy who is scared of everything from creepy crawlies under the rug to monsters in his closet.

When Mikey finds an old book about a young prince who volunteers to protect his king-less kingdom from hordes of dragons, he begins to learn that his fears are not as big as they seem.

The book, told in rhyming verse and illustrated with big, bold, and beautiful full-color pictures, helps children overcome their fears and tap into their inner bravery.

It is relatable, inspiring, and perfect for young readers to enjoy alone or with their parents.
