From retired Navy Seal and #1 New York Times-bestselling author Jocko Willink comes a timeless tale about a young boy's wondrous journey of slaying dragons - and conquering his fear. Little Mikey is scared of everything. He's certain there are creepy crawlies hidden under the rug. He sleeps with his light on to keep the monsters at bay. He's scared of sharks and snakes even ladders and slides and it all makes him incredibly sad. But when he stumbles upon an old book that tells the tale of a young boy prince that volunteers to protect his king-less kingdom from hordes of dragons, there's a chance Mikey might discover that his fears are not quite as big as they seem. Relatable to anyone who has ever struggled with fear and anxiety, this picture book about conquering fear and tapping into the warrior within will have mass appeal.
