Happy [Lunar] New Year! Today is the first day of the Year of the Rabbit. Hyun-Joo Bae has written and illustrated a lovely picture book called New Clothes for New Year's Day. "It's a new year, it's a new day, and it's a new morning. It's the first day for the beginning of everything," says a young Korean girl. She is excited to dress in her new clothes for making New Year's calls.
My favorite parts of this picture book are the beautiful illustrations and the end pages providing details about Lunar New Year traditions.
This translated edition was published in 2007 by Kane/Miller Book Publishers, Inc.
"I wish you good luck."
