Summary

Running out of time to make his grandfather smile once again before it's too late, Kohei searches for a ryū--a dragon of legend--in this multigenerational story about the lengths to which people will go to protect those they love.

The big ryū-- dragons-- all disappeared from Japan after World War II, and twenty years later they've become the stuff of legend. Kohei has a memory of the big ryū, even though he knows that's impossible. When Kohei was little he'd dreamed of going on a quest with his grandpa-- Ojiisan-- to bring the big ryū back. But now Ojiisan is really sick, and Kohei is running out of time to make his grandfather smile once again. -- adapted from jacket
