Book: the green dragon

The Green Dragon is an old, wise character with many friends.  When his friends are hurt by the plastic pollution in the ocean he feels anger and despair.  A young boy comes to his rescue in more ways than one.

Read about Willy, the Green Dragon and his friends; Pearl, Myrtle and Eddie and how their stories inspire a little boy to take action.

The book is aimed at children of all ages. The beautiful illustrations will capture the youngest child’s imagination and the message easily understood.  The book has a brief educational section at the back that can assist parents, grandparents, babysitters or teachers to have a discussion to provoke action in the home, school or community in general.

About the author:

Suzanne Younan is the founder of Draco Viridi Ltd and the volunteer group ‘Green  Dragons HK’.

Suzanne has been living with her family in Hong Kong since 2014.  A true nature and animal lover Suzanne was compelled to involve others in her plight to raise awareness.

A keen dragon boater and beach goer, Suzanne engaged the dragon boat community to reduce single use plastics at training and events.  

During her volunteer work Suzanne decided to reach young minds with a story that might provoke a reaction in communities across Hong Kong and around the world.  

The Green Dragon books were written to touch the hearts of children and encourage them to take action, hopefully influencing their peers and family members along the way.

The goal is to touch a chord in the hearts of children to promote change. Suzanne hopes to reach children with the emotional stories and characters to raise awareness and prompt a lifelong change in behaviour.
