Red Wagon

A simple story about complex imaginations, in board book!

Lucy has a new red wagon, and all she wants to do is play! But when her mother sends her—and her wagon—off to do some chores, Lucy knows there’s more in store. Before long, her friends join in, and an ordinary trip to the market becomes a high-seas adventure, a ride through outer space, a day at the circus, and so much more. As long as she has her red wagon and her friends by her side, nothing can get in the way of Lucy's fun.

Renata Liwska's vibrant art takes center stage in this imaginative book for the youngest of readers, just the way it did in her award-winning, New York Times bestselling titles The Quiet Book and The Loud Book!, both written by Deborah Underwood.

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
