Five Stars Amazon Customer Used this with my little girl for Chinese New Year celebration. She loves it.. Good story, visually overwhelming I have purchased three of these books in this series. I liked this story and my son enjoyed it as well. The thing is that this version has Chinese characters as well as English in it. It seems like a neat idea but it comes off as too busy on the page..
