What is Happy Chinese New Year, Kai-lan! (Ni Hao, Kai-lan) about?
<p><P>Join Kai-lan for a Chinese New Year celebration! Kai-lan and her friends get to carry the dragon costume in the big parade - but can they work together to make the dragon dance?<br></p><h3>School Library Journal</h3><p>K-Gr 2—This story, based on the popular Nickelodeon cartoon series, introduces children to the Chinese New Year. Kai-lan and her friends are getting ready for a big celebration. They hang red lanterns and banners and place flowers on the tables. During this preparation, Kai-lan's grandfather, YeYe, comes by wearing a dragon costume. He suggests that the children work together to carry the dragon in the parade. He has each one take a number from his hat so they will know which end of the creature to hold up. Rintoo is unhappy when he draws the middle, a position he feels is the least important. However, the entire dragon sags when he refuses to hold up his part, and Kai-lan convinces him that each part is super, super, super important. The cartoons are bright and colorful. Kai-lan and her grandfather are the only human characters; the rest are cuddly, anthropomorphic animals. This book promises to be a welcome addition to the series.—Donna Atmur, Los
