Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Gr. 1-3. From the On My Own Holidays series, this colorful book describes the celebration of Chinese New Year, which is also called the Spring Festival. Among the topics discussed are the Chinese zodiac, traditional symbols of the new year, family feasts and traditions for the holiday, and community activities, such as parades. On nearly every page, illustrations depict people of all ages preparing for and celebrating Chinese New Year. A short glossary is appended. Clearly written, informative, and child-centered without talking down to children, this provides a good introduction to the holiday. Another title in the series is Easter around the World.
