Revised for 2018! "The Year Of The Dog: Tales From The Chinese Zodiac is a picture book about a puppy born on New Years' Day, who explores his surroundings with the companionship of Lin, the little girl next door. A whimsical tale of confusion and adventure, as Lin and the puppy meet the other animals of the Chinese zodiac, some in their imagination, and some in real life...The cartoony and angular art style captures the eagerness of the young dog perfectly, in this upbeat astrological tale." - Midwest Book Review "It's about a boisterous but well-meaning puppy, Daniel, protecting his best friend (an adventurous little girl named Lin), and is unfazed by almost all the creatures that lurk in the forest behind Lin's house. The book is brilliantly illustrated by Jeremiah Alcorn. In their journey together, Daniel discovers his true nature - honest, faithful and loyal." - Asian Week "Perfect timing with the Lunar New Year." - Asian Art Museum, San Francisco "A storybook ideal for launching the lunar year" - Books, Inc., San Francisco, CA. "Tales From the Chinese Zodiac is a series of 12 books about these iconic calendar denizens, starting with The Year of the Dog... each book targets four- to eight-year-olds and stars a baby animal coming of age and learning how to personify the year it represents." - Kidscreen Magazine "The Year Of The Dog is a great one. Its tales of childhood friendships keeps you on edge as you wonder what's coming around the next corner. It teaches a lesson to respect your animals, as it nonchalantly teaches you to be yourself and to follow your instincts. This great tale of man's best friend is a must have for all young ones." - The Opinionated Parent
