Our Family Dragon: A Lunar New Year Story
Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade

A glorious celebration of love, family and the Lunar New Year.

I can't wait till the dragon gets here! 

It's New Year's Eve - the Lunar New Year. We are in Australia, but Bàba says people around the world have celebrated it for thousands of years. It's my very favourite time. Especially when the dragon is coming.

A gorgeous story that celebrates family, tradition and the magic of the season.
