Zhang, Kat, 1991- (author.). Chua, Charlene, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Amy loves craft time at school, but when her teacher asks everyone to make their own dragon, Amy feels stuck. Her first dragon has a long, wingless body, stag-like horns, and eagle claws, but her friends don't think it's a real dragon. Then she makes dragons like theirs, but none of them feels quite right - none of them feels like hers. After school, a story from Grandma sparks new inspiration, and Amy rounds up her family to help her. Will Amy make her perfect dragon? -- Publisher's description.
