Bringing In the New Year by Grace Lin
This exuberant story follows a Chinese American family as they prepare for the Lunar New Year. Each member of the family lends a hand as they sweep out the dust of the old year, hang decorations, and make dumplings. Then it's time to put on new clothes and celebrate with family and friends. There will be fireworks and lion dancers, shining lanterns, and a great, long dragon parade to help bring in the Lunar New Year. And the dragon parade in our book is extra long-on a surprise fold-out page at the end of the story. Grace Lin's artwork is a bright and gloriously patterned celebration in itself And her story is tailor-made for reading aloud.Grace Lin is the author and artist of The Ugly Vegetables, which was selected an American Bookseller Association Kid's Choice of the Year, as well as the illustrator of several additional picture books. She is now based in Los Angeles, California, after graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design. Visit Grace Lin's website at www.gracelin.com to learn more about her.
