Book cover for The Legend of Cuoi, the Man on the Moon (Tiny Wrist)

This is a bilingual Vietnamese English picture book from Tiny Wrist that retells the Vietnamese legend of Cuội, the man on the Moon. It is best for families, kids, and heritage learners who want a short read-aloud that connects language practice with Mid-Autumn Festival traditions.

You can buy it on Tiny Wrist’s product page as an eBook or a hardcover. The listing describes a 34-page, 8.5 x 8.5 inch hardcover, and says the bilingual text is edited by native speakers of both languages.

For Vietnamese learners, the main benefit is simple reading exposure with an English support line right there when you need it. The physical book also includes a free sticker sheet, which makes it easier to keep younger kids engaged.

What it does not do is teach step-by-step Vietnamese. There are no built-in exercises, audio, or dialect notes, so you will get the most out of it if you read together, point to words, and reuse key phrases across multiple readings.
