Li’s Chinese New Year
Bilingual English Vietnamese picture book for kids about Lunar New Year, with a simple story plus zodiac facts, recipes, and activities. ISBN-13 9781846115752.
Do Unicorns Wear Áo Dài Too? is a bilingual board book from embebooks for young children, especially ages 2 to 6. It uses a simple unicorn theme to introduce color words in English with Vietnamese translations. If you want a gentle first book for shared reading with a child, this is easy to pick up and use even if your Vietnamese is limited.
The format is very simple. It is a 7 x 7 inch matte board book with 28 pages, so it is made for short read-aloud sessions and small hands. The official product page says the text is in English, with the colors translated into Vietnamese, and the illustrations focus on unicorns wearing áo dài in different colors. That makes it more of an early vocabulary and cultural exposure book than a story with a big plot.
What it does well is keep things focused. You get beginner-friendly word exposure, strong visual support, and a Vietnamese cultural element that families may appreciate. The tradeoff is that the language scope is narrow. It is best for basic color vocabulary and reading together, not for grammar, conversation, or deeper literacy practice. As of March 2026, the book is still listed for sale on the publisher's site at $15, and the product page shows no customer reviews.
