“Gorgeously illustrated book, telling the story of the lunar new year and how it began to be celebrated in the US. It shows that the LNY is a beautiful time of year where family and friends get together and appreciate not only their own lives, but the lives of those they care for and to honor their ancestors and pray for the new year to come. Filled with great music, beautiful decor and costumes as well as yummy looking food. I appreciated that they showed how different Asian countries celebrated the LNY too and didnt just stick to China, Japan and Korea. I also love how they explained the Chinese zodiac.
