How Dragons Got Their Colors Now Released

Riverside, WA, April 30, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Recently, three individuals came together to create a children's book, How the Dragons Got Their Colors, that had been the long time vision of Linda Shelton. A great grandmother now, she had never quite known how to word the story she had told her children in a manner that would be accepted for publishing. Nevertheless, the story had been told many times as her children were growing up.

Her daughter, Cheryl Matthynssens, had also told the story around the campfire to her own children. An English Education Major, she set out with one goal; to find an illustrator. She soon became friends and partners with Rebecca Hunt. Cheryl had not wanted a scary picture of dragons for her book. Rebecca's style was non threatening and somewhat whimsical, exactly what Cheryl was looking for to help her story come to life.

Rebecca hails from Minnesota. She has been drawing, according to her mother, ever since she could hold a crayon. She had recently gotten into graphic design and was mostly drawing for her own enjoyment and her family projects when she and Cheryl connected.

This well illustrated story tells the quest of one little dragon in search of finding color for all the dragons in the world. See, they were all gray and the little dragon felt this was just not in such a beautiful world. A beautiful lesson on kindness and selflessness and told in a charming manner. It is ideal for bedtime stories and for those with a love of all things dragon.
