Synopsis
In this beautifully illustrated picture book, a little Chinese boy named Long-Long accompanies his grandfather into the city to sell cabbages in order to buy food and decorations for the New Year. Selling cabbages is harder than Long-Long expects, and he encounters many adventures before he finds a way to help his grandfather, and earn New Year's treats for his mother and little cousin. The stunning, authentic illustrations-by a talented Chinese artist-capture the look of everyday life in rural China. Combined with the charming story of Long-Long's trip to the city, they offer a unique introduction to Chinese culture. Includes a glossary of Chinese terms.

Review
"Fun & Easy Origami is, hands-down, the easiest of the origami kits I've tried from Tuttle. If your gift recipient is a young beginner, this is definitely the one to go with. There's a good bit of variety, but these are pretty simple folds. That's good for not-so-nimble fingers, and/or for young people who may get frustrated easily if the folds aren't working right. The selection of figures seems to have been made with children in mind, too. They are likely to find these approachable, relevant subjects." —Titus 2 Homemaker blog
