Author and Illustrator Interview | Jeannie Lin | Thaomy Le | Lunar New Year | Year of the Cat 

Author Jeannie Lin and illustrator Thaomy Le join Ms. Gisa for an interview about their book, The Year of the Cat: The Untold Story of the Lunar New Year Race. The book is written by Jeannie Lin (Phuong Chi Nguyen), and her two children Daniel Rettig and Mae Linh Rettig and illustrated by Thaomy Le. I learned so much about this Lunar New Year story from speaking with Jeannie and Thaomy! Did you know that in Vietnamese culture, the interpretation of the Chinese origin story of the race between the twelve zodiac animals includes a cat? Some say that the cat overslept because the rat didn't wake her up. Listen to the interview to learn more.
