Abstract:
This adorable Chinese-English bilingual children's book tells the story of the Little Rat and the Grandpa-unlikely allies who embark on an adventure to find a golden seed. They encounter rough seas, fierce guards and tall mountains, but-in the end-bring home a golden rice seed and save the village from going hungry. Illustrated with unique Chinese ink paintings, this book also includes a "cultural explanation" section. Readers can reference a chart to learn the years of the rat and read more about common characteristics of people born then. Birth years include 2008 and 2020.
