Search Python dictionary where value is list

Question

If I had a dictionary where the value was set to a list by default, how could I go about searching all of these lists in the dictionary for a certain term?

For Examp

Answer 1

[k for k, v in textbooks.iteritems() if 'red' in v]

It is Pythonic shorthand for

res = []
for key, val in textbooks.iteritems():
    if 'red' in val:
        res.append(key)
