Five Colour Dog Traditional Chinese New Year Celebrations

Don’t expect quiet in the library on Feb 11 and Feb 14, as two usually calm book repositories, (John Harvard Library and Canada Water Library) are transformed into a riot of colour, music and storytelling in celebration of the Year of the Dog. You’ll hear musical, interactive tales from London's seasoned storyteller Vanessa Woolf, plus a sprinkling of Mandarin from children's publisher Snowflake, whose books are full of ancient Chinese fairytales and legends. And even the shushiest of librarians won’t be able to silence those firecrackers.
