Because it's only in the spring that Nian, a fierce dragon, is able to leave his mountain prison under the sea to terrorize the local village. When the villagers hear the rumblings of Nian's hungry stomach, they know that winter has ended and spring is coming. But this year on the night before the first day of spring, a magical warrior visits Mei in her dreams. He tells Mei that it is her destiny to face and defeat Nian. But she must do it within 15 days or the dragon will be free forever. Author Virginia Loh-Hagan (PoPo's Lucky Chinese New Year) gives this retelling of the Nian legend an original twist, while explaining the origins of Chinese New Year traditions.

Book Synopsis Surviving the Dragon by : Arjia Rinpoche
Download or read book Surviving the Dragon written by Arjia Rinpoche and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2010-03-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a peaceful summer day in 1952, ten monks on horseback arrived at a traditional nomad tent in northeastern Tibet where they offered the parents of a precocious toddler their white handloomed scarves and congratulations for having given birth to a holy child—and future spiritual leader. Surviving the Dragon is the remarkable life story of Arjia Rinpoche, who was ordained as a reincarnate lama at the age of two and fled Tibet 46 years later. In his gripping memoir, Rinpoche relates the story of having been abandoned in his monastery as a young boy after witnessing the torture and arrest of his monastery family. In the years to come, Rinpoche survived under harsh Chinese rule, as he was forced into hard labor and endured continual public humiliation as part of Mao's Communist "reeducation." By turns moving, suspenseful, historical, and spiritual, Rinpoche's unique experiences provide a rare window into a tumultuous period of Chinese history and offer readers an uncommon glimpse inside a Buddhist monastery in Tibet.

Book Synopsis Legend of the Chinese Dragon by : Marie Sellier
Download or read book Legend of the Chinese Dragon written by Marie Sellier and published by NorthSouth Books. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In ancient China, the different tribes lived under the protection of benevolent spirits that took the form of animals--fish, ox, bird, horse, and serpent. But, as often happens, the tribes grew envious of each other and began to fight amongst themselves in the names of their spirits. The children decided to declare a war on war by creating a creature that combined the best of all the spirits and would protect all the people. To this day, the dragon is a symbol of peace and plays an especially important role in the celebration of the Chinese New Year. This timely message of cooperation and empowerment makes this book especially appealing to trade and institutional accounts. Communities with significant Chinese populations will also have a special interest in this title. Catherine Louis' Liu and the Bird was a critical hit with review journals, teachers, and librarians.

Book Synopsis Drazen - The Years of the Dragon by : Marjan Crnogaj
Download or read book Drazen - The Years of the Dragon written by Marjan Crnogaj and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most recent Croatian book about the basketball legend Drazen Petrovic with thorough insight into his celebrated international career on the both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. An in-depth career retrospective of the 'European Michael Jordan' with numerous untold details, unseen photos, and stories, both on and off court, with countless testimonies from basketball legends from all over the world. In Europe, he was known as the 'Mozart of Basketball' with dreams of coming to America and playing in the NBA. The NBA transformed 'Europe's best of the best' ingeniously - by letting the game come to him, the 'Dragon' turned into one of the most propulsive and precise shooting guards in the NBA and the first European to be considered a 'franchise player'. After Larry Bird's retirement in the fall of 1992, it was Drazen who turned into the brightest Caucasian star of the League, fighting each night to achieve his childhood dream, playing at the NBA All-Star game and thus paving the way for all Europeans. Wherever he would play, it would seem that basketball had arrived in town - the game would travel with him, making him one of the greatest ambassadors in the history of the game, with his influence stretching all over the globe. Although it's been almost a quarter of a century since his sudden, tragic death, his basketball star is still shining with the same brightness and is frequently remembered by legendary shooters such as Reggie Miller, Dale Ellis, and Stephen Curry, to name a few. With one of the most distinct non-American basketball books ever, the Croatian authors set an irreplaceable reference point for all future artistic works about the legendary Captain. "Shooting is a dying art and Drazen's shot was an art form." - Dale Ellis Reviews "An incredible book! Like most basketball fans, I thought I knew everything about Drazen, but Marjan Crnogaj and Vlado Radicevic created a true masterpiece and proved me wrong... I fully recommend it to everyone!" - Damjan Rudez, Orlando Magic "So that is why this book written by two basketball experts and fanatics, Marjan Crnogaj and Vlado Radicevic, a kind of transcendental experience for all readers, a new way to "spend time" with the legendary Captain. Two journalists, whose love for basketball is nearly at the same level as Drazen's, offer us another reminder of the fanatical basketball genius who we shouldn't and cannot forget." - Drazen Brajdic, Vecernji list
