What if your greatest gift was the one thing you thought was wrong with you?
Meet Ember - a sweet little purple dragon with a big problem. Every dragon breathes fire. Every dragon except him.He huffed. He puffed. He tried with everything he had. But all that came out were tiny smoke rings.
At dragon school, the other dragons roared with flames while Ember watched from the side, whispering to himself, Why can't I do it too?
Then one wise grandmother, one dark cave, one frightened little rabbit - and one extraordinary moment - changed everything.
Because Ember didn't breathe fire.
