Once again, we had an awesome time reading and telling stories at Charles Beatley Jr. Central Library on May 18, 2019. We had an energetic crowd for sure, as we started off with a reading of Centipede Dragon A Benevolent Creature versus the Rascally ReptilLion. Then we celebrated Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month–the month of May–with a mythical story about how the order of the animals in the Chinese Zodiac came to be. Now, there are so many interesting things about Asian cultures, and though it was hard to choose upon what to focus, a story about a great race to the Heavenly Gate seemed too good to pass up!
We concluded with our rollicking drawing game where we create a new zany creature out of two (or even three), only this time we chose animals from the Chinese Zodiac. Our resulting crazy creations: Dogragon (dog plus dragon), Horx (horse plus ox), and RASNOX (rabbit plus ox plus snake)!
So, a hearty thanks to Amy and Diana at Charles Beatley for another wonderful opportunity to share my story, and further share information about Asian culture. And of course, thanks to the engaged and enthusiastic families who attended. See you next time!
