Book Description from the Front Cover Flap

Red is a dragon
Red is a drum
Red are the firecrackers-
here they come!

In this lively concept book a little girl discovers a rainbow of colors in the world around her. Red is a dragon in the Chinese New Year Parade, yellow are the taxis she sees on her street, green are jade bracelets and the crunchy kale growing in her garden. Many of the featured objects are Asian in origin, but all are universal in appeal. With rich, boisterous illustrations, a fun-to-read rhyming text and an informative glossary, this colorful book will brighten every child's day!
