4.5 stars! Beautiful illustrations and adequate coverage of traditions for Lunar New Year! Great for kids to learn about the most important festival in Chinese culture. My little one especially loves the pages with the dragon dance and nian monster.

The only thing that needs revision is the description of the Nian monster - okay, it's all myths but the book says a head of a bull and a body of an ox.... that sounds like the same species to me Lol... which I don't think it's any close to the folk tales we used to hear (which should be something like lion with horns). By the way, the illustration of Nian does look "right", so if the wording can be revised to match, then it would be perfect.

I bought this book for my son so he can learn about other cultures and traditions that are different from ours. This book is really well made, illustrated well and just the right length for bedtime. I highly recommend the book as a way to learn on a child’s level about the wonderful holiday Lunar New Year.

This is one of the best books on Chinese New Year for toddlers! The watercolor drawings are so beautiful and rich, there's so much for kids to point out on each page, and the notes about the holiday are great lessons...it covers enough of the culture and heritage and includes accurate Mandarin pinyin for learning. We love it so much and it's definitely a keeper we will keep going back to. Every bilingual Chinese child needs this in their library!
