5.0 out of 5 stars A book to introduce your children to the Chinese New Year, August 7, 2004
This book just perfect for introducing your child to the Chinese New Year and a perfect place to start! My daughter loves lifting the flaps on each page and is the begining of her learning all about her Chinese Heritage! I only wish it where a lot in board book form!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great fun!, March 17, 2006
I bought this book for a pre-K to K aged storytime I lead, and it was a great way to introduce Chinese New Year to the kids. It was even more fun to read alone with my own preschooler, as she could lift the flaps herself (always a bonus)! The rhyming text makes it fun to read, as the story follows a family getting ready for Chinese new Year. Includes a Chinese Zodiac wheel and instructions for making a dragon puppet.

4.0 out of 5 stars Chinese New Year Book for Kids, January 9, 2007
I am an elementary music teacher, and I used the story/picture book to supplement our music class activity on Chinese New Year and Chinese folk songs. The kids really liked the book in 1st and 2nd grade, and the pop-ups were well done. Since we have a non-Chinese population, but more Vietnamese at our school, the Chinese words didn't make sense to the students, but we figured it out--Happy Chinese New Year.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not for children younger than 2
The flaps are very thin and small, and are easily torn off by children younger than 2. A great book for learning about the Chinese New year, geared to an older toddler. Read more
