This exciting picture book, subtitled, "Chinese Astrology for Children" is not only a working overview of the Chinese zodiac and a legend of it's creation, it is a compendium of inspired folktales based on the traditional animal stories of China. It includes an easy-to-read chart for finding your animal year and descriptions of the character traits of each animal. Gregory Crawford lives and draws in nearby Gaysville, Vermont so we are especially proud of the dynamic illustrations that grace each page of this special book. Click on image to read more…….
What can we say??? Just look at the cover of the book and you have an idea of the vivid drawings within. After an introduction of the "Story of the Twelve Earthly Branches" and a straight-forward how-to on 'finding your animal year', Crawford introduces each animal and a story to go with it. Crawford will be visiting Seasoned Booksellers on December 7th and autographed copies will be available. Order yours now for a special holiday gift. And enjoy!
