Celebrate Chinese New Year  Cover Image Book Book

Celebrate Chinese New Year / by Carolyn Otto ; consultant, Haiwang Yuan.

Otto, Carolyn, (author.). Yuan, Haiwang. (consultant.).

Summary:

For two joyous weeks red is all around. The color represents luck and happiness. Children receive money wrapped in red paper, and friends and loved ones exchange poems written on red paper. The Chinese New Year is also an opportunity to remember ancestors, and to wish peace and happiness to friends and family. The holiday ends with the Festival of Lanterns, as many large communities stage the famous Dragon Dance. Fireworks, parades, lanterns, presents, and feasts: these are some of the joys experienced by all who observe Chinese New Year.
