The first pages

Every winter, Mei's family in Vancouver gets ready for Lunar New Year. It is a big celebration that follows the moon, so the date changes each year.

Mom cleaned the whole house. "We sweep out the old year," she said, "to make room for the new one." Mei swept under her bed and found two socks and a crayon.

What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.

Talk time questions

  • Why did Mei's family clean the house before the new year?
  • What color is lucky at Lunar New Year?
  • What is a food your family eats for a special day?
