Warren & Dragon 100 Friends (#1) by Ariel Bernstein
Warren wants to make 100 friends so he can be more popular at his new school. His best friend, Dragon (a talking stuffed dragon only Warren can hear), thinks that sounds like a terrible idea. As Warren tries to reach his goal, he learns that real friendship isn’t about numbers. A funny and charming story about imagination, confidence, and what it really means to be a good friend.
