This book explains all the popular Chinese festivals in twenty nine fully illustrated stories which depict their origins and evolution. The Chinese festivals covered include: Lunar New Year, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Qing Ming Festival, Chinese Valentine's Day, and many more. The presentation of the stories about these traditional festivals in comic-book style will help the reader to appreciate how these celebrations have acted as a social glue in keeping the Chinese united as a race throughout their long history and in spite of often living long geographical distances apart throughout the world. Educational and fun to read. Highly recommended for all ages.
