A. Ray gets a great reception
---
Kids, educators, and families have enjoyed reading The Year of the Rooster this spring.
"The book was enjoyable to read and fun to talk about. Not only do we find out more about the animals of the lunar zodiac, but we learn, along with Ray and Ying, the value of persistence, hard work, and following your dreams - a plus for parents!... My daughter had me read the book twice in a row, which indicates her approval... And if you enjoy reading The Year of the Rooster: Tales from the Chinese Zodiac, there are eleven others in the series to explore. Children will especially love to read about the animal of their particular birth year."

The Treehouse Heroes
by Phil Amara, art by Alina Chau
"This action-packed adventure stars five super-powered teens focused on saving the plight of the endangered Zez, a dragon-like creature that's the last of its kind. Think Power Rangers meets traditional Asian folk tale meets exquisite scroll painting."
