This warm and welcoming New Year celebration invites readers to
learn about Rosh Hashanah and Lunar New Year traditions and to
reflect on the rich blends of cultures and traditions in their own
lives. For this multicultural family, inspired by the author's own,
two New Years mean twice as much to celebrate! In the fall, the
Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah offers an opportunity to bake
challah, dip apples in honey, and lift voices in song. In the
spring, the Chinese Lunar New Year brings a chance to eat
dumplings, watch dragon dances, and release glowing lanterns that
light up the sky. With bright, joyful prose and luminous
illustrations, Richard Ho and Lynn Scurfield invite readers of all
backgrounds to experience the beauty of two New Year traditions,
paying homage to the practices that make each unique while
illuminating the values of abundance, family, and hope that they
share. Full of opportunities to reflect on the rich blends of
cultures and traditions in our lives, this moving picture book is a
beautiful reminder that, at heart, our celebrations might not be so
different after all.
