About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their preschooler starts pointing out colors, offering a joyful way to build on that new skill. More than a simple color primer, Red Is a Dragon explores the color red through a series of lyrical riddles featuring objects from Chinese culture, like lucky lychees and paper lanterns. It nurtures curiosity and a sense of wonder about the everyday world. For ages 3 to 5, this book is a beautiful, gentle choice that not only reinforces a key concept but also celebrates cultural diversity in a warm, accessible way.
