Curious George visits Mei and learns about Chinese New Year cultural traditions. It might be the special events, but for once, George happily takes part and even helps. For those who know, the Chinese New Year is not the same as Lunar New year in other countries. It is a separate and unique time of the year. The sections include information in adorable rhymes for Let's Celebrate, Zodiac Animals, Lucky Start, Family Reunion Dinner, Lucky Money, Chinese New Year Day, and Lantern Festival. The Lantern Festival begins at the end of the new year's observance. Child-centered and entertaining, children will enjoy the happy monkey and his friend prepare for and enjoy the new year events.

Author Information
Hans Augusto Rey was born in Hamburg, Germany, in 1898. As a child, he spent much of his time in that city's famous Hagenbeck Zoo, drawing animals. Hans and his wife, Margret, escaped Paris in 1940 by bicycle, carrying the manuscript for the first Curious George book. They came to live in the United States, and Curious George was published in 1941.
