The Bearded Dragon

In a sandy, sun-baked desert in Australia, a friendly bearded dragon named Ziggy just wants to make friends. But every time he lifts his arm to say hello, the other animals scatter. Follow along as Ziggy discovers that different animals communicate in different ways and that kindness sometimes means learning someone else’s language.
