새해 복 많이 받으세요 Saehae bok mani badeuseyo!
Madeleine and Eloise are getting ready for their family's Lunar New Year party, and there's so much to do before the guests arrive! From putting on colorful outfits called hanboks and making Korean dumplings called mandoo, to setting up yutnori, a traditional board game, Madeleine shows her younger sister how to prepare for the holiday. But when Madeleine forgets to write a poem to share with the family, Eloise offers to help—and the girls realize that although each tradition is special, what matters most is spending the day together.
This festive audiobook is a perfect way to learn about Korean New Year traditions, and features a glossary of Korean terms at the end of the recording, along with the author's own mandoo recipe and instructions for a craft activity to create your very own charae-sang tablescape!
"A cozy celebration brimming with traditions and sisterly love." —Kirkus Reviews
