Description

Celebrate Lunar New Year with the lion dance, bringing good luck and fortune to all.
In this story designed to engage early readers, charming characters combine with simple text, lively illustrations, and laugh-out-loud humor to help boost kids' confidence and create lifelong readers!

As Lunar New Year approaches, a colorful costume catches the eye of siblings Lily and Noah—the lion dancers are practicing for the parade! As they learn what the lion dance means, the duo dives into helping prepare, even making their own lion costume for fun.

Complete with even more facts about the legend of the lion dance in the back of the book, young readers will want to revisit this story again and again.

Exciting, easy-to-read books are the stepping stone a young reader needs to bridge the gap between being a beginner and being fluent.
