Happy Chinese New Year! I've added still another picture book to my list of recommended
Children's Books About the Chinese New Year / Lunar New Year. It's
Crouching Tiger, and it's a book children will enjoy any time of year because, while it includes the Chinese New Year celebration, the focus is more on how a Chinese-American boy comes to appreciate his Chinese grandfather who is visiting for the New Year. Young kids who are fascinated with martial arts will particularly enjoy the book. Read over my
list, and if you have other books about the Chinese New Year to recommend, please click on "Comments" below and share your recommendations.
