Summary
" An unforgettable lyrical picture book that celebrates biracial identity from the award-winning author of Paper Son: The Inspiring Story of Tyrus Wong, Immigrant and Artist. Brought to life with lavish and ornate illustrations, The Truth About Dragons follows a child on a journey guided by his mother's bedtime storytelling. He begins a quest into two very different forests as his grandmothers help him discover two different, but equally enchanting, truths about dragons. Eastern and Western mythologies coexist and enrich each other in this warm celebration of mixed cultural identity." -- Provided by publisher.
