So, by reading to kids about happy hippos, angry ducks, worried rabbits, grumpy moose, and many more, she teaches kids about the different kinds of moods and makes this book both very entertaining and educational.
This is a wonderful book for teaching children about another culture or for learning more about their own heritage. However, as with all of Thong/Lin's Chinese concept books, some of the unfamiliar elements will add an extra challenge that may be too much for some. My son Luke's attention waned on pages where his difficulty understanding the text and images was most tested. A "dragon boat" was something we were able to label. Two "greetings on the wall," written in Chinese characters, was too alien an concept. Still, because of the familiar counting concept book structure, he was able to understand that there was two of something he was meant to count. He scanned the page and was able to point and say "one, two" in the correct places, but without the understanding of what he was pointing to.
I am devoted in every way to making writing a career. I write both picture books and chapter books, and would be happy to share more manuscripts if you are interested. Thank you for your time and consideration.
