Gianna the Pink Dragon by Leiann Greib, Gianna Greib, Duc Nguyen (Illustrator)

Published: July 29, 2025 by Blue Balloon Books

Genre:  Children’s Book

Taken from Amazon: I look like a regular girl on the outside . . . but am I? I have a secret: I'm in disguise. I am a girl, but I am also a dragon!

Seven-year-old Gianna leads a double life. By day, she's a typical first grader-obsessed with Barbie, stuffed animals, and pomegranates. But when her emotions surge, she transforms into a pink dragon with shimmering scales, capable of breathing ice and ready to face any challenge head-on! Gianna clings to her magical shapeshifting necklace for bravery in everyday moments, like doctor's visits and ballet recitals, knowing that Pink Dragon will always have her back. Whenever you need a boost of courage, Gianna the Pink Dragon will have your back too.

My Thoughts:  I love this book!   Gianna is a typical seven-year-old.  Her fears are real and true to a seven-year-old and she faces those fears as a pink dragon.  This book is a great story.   Little girls will relate to Gianna.   The bright and colorful illustrations tell the story, and the words go perfectly with them. 

I am excited to add Gianna the Pink Dragon to my children’s book library. 

Thank you Blue Balloon Books for a copy of the book in exchange for my honest review.
