In ancient China, the different tribes lived under the protection of benevolent spirits that took the form of animals--fish, ox, bird, horse, and serpent. But, as often happens, the tribes grew envious of each other and began to fight amongst themselves in the names of their spirits. The children decided to declare a war on war by creating a creature that combined the best of all the spirits and would protect all the people. To this day, the dragon is a symbol of peace and plays an especially important role in the celebration of the Chinese New Year. This timely message of cooperation and empowerment makes this book especially appealing to trade and institutional accounts. Communities with significant Chinese populations will also have a special interest in this title. Catherine Louis' Liu and the Bird was a critical hit with review journals, teachers, and librarians.

Renoir's Colors helps children identify and explore colors through eight kid-friendly paintings by the great Impressionist master. Its engaging interactive format invites the reader to open a flap and see a beautiful color detail of one of Renoir's works and then to turn the page to see the full painting from which the detail is drawn. Young readers will learn that each color exists in a variety of shades. Yellow can be the color of a man's straw hat or the light of summer shining through the trees. Blue can be bright like the stripes in a woman's dress or rich and deep like a man's suit or dark like the shadows that dance on the ground. This charming book will offer children a wonderful first experience with art, encouraging them to look closely at visual images as well as to see the variety of colors in the world around them.
