Hiss! Pop! Boom!: Celebrating Chinese New Year Book

This book shares what happens on Chinese New Year in the Chinese culture. Using onomatopoeia, vibrant illustrations, and traditional Chinese calligraphy, the book gives an accurate perspective of what Chinese New Year a celebration looks (and sounds) like. I liked this book because I could relate it to my own experiences with Chinese New Year. My family celebrates Chinese New Year because my younger sister was adopted from China. This book could be used in the classroom to inform students about a celebration in a different culture and teach them things they did not know about Chinese culture. This book is for ages 7 and up because there is a lot of text. The theme of this book is celebration and I did not find anything problematic about the story.
