Coconut is a Fire Dragon who usually hangs out on Dragon Island with Oscar, a Gourmet Dragon, and Matilda, a porcupine. The trio of best friends love having adventures, but get more than they bargained for when their ships sink while they are on their way to school camp and they find themselves in a strange jungle inhabited by the mysterious Water Dragons. Friendships are tested and new allegiances are formed so all species of dragons can work together to fend off the jungle’s deadly carnivorous vines.
This feature animation about friendship and bridging cultural divides is a terrific introduction to the world of Coconut the Little Dragon: a beloved series of best-selling books that have been translated into more than 20 languages.
Parental guidance: very mild sense of threat in some scenes.
