Come listen to a bilingual story in Mandarin and English!

Bring your children to East Asian Story Time and enjoy a storybook telling of “Thanking the Moon” by Grace Lin. This story follows the meanings and symbols behind the Chinese Autumn Moon Festival (Tsukimi/月見 in Japan).

The Center for East Asian and Pacific, in partnership with the Urbana Free Library, presents East Asian Story Time, a monthly family event series celebrating cultural and language diversity in our communities. Each bilingual storytime event will feature a story read in English and Chinese, Japanese, or Korean to spark children’s interest in East Asian languages and cultures. All are welcome!
