The Emperor has a problem. He wants his people to remember the year in which his son was born. But there is no way to keep track of the years. So the Emperor devises a race in which animals will cross a river. The first twelve animals to reach the opposite side will have a year named after them. Thus, the people will be able to remember the years and the events that occurred. And so the race is set. Rat, knowing he is no match for the rushing water, schemes with Cat on how to cross the river. Together the two convince Ox to carry them across. But halfway across the river, Rat shows his true colors. Will Cat make it to the other side? Which animals will have a year named after them? Accompanied by exquisite watercolor artwork, this charming story explains the origins of the Chinese calendar.

Ying shares her own observations and opinions about what makes Chinese New Year the 'best', introduces us to her family (including cats) and takes us along on her Year of the Cat campaign. It is a book about the joy of holidays with family and the extra, added anticipation that surrounds the arrival of a new sibling, all captured in Josie Yee's colorful, exquisitely detailed illustrations.The following excerpt begins the fun adventure with Year of the Cat: "In Chinese Time, months are measured by the cycles of the moon, and every year has an assigned animal from the Chinese Zodiac. There are twelve official Chinese animals. I was born in the Year of the Monkey. Maybe that's why it's hard for me to sit still. I ask Ma Ma, who knows the reasons for lots of things, Why isn't there a Year of the Cat?"Children and parents alike will learn why there isn't, and about Ying's resolve to honor her cat, Bao, her Cousin's cat, Jackie Chan, and cats everywhere, when the New Year arrives.
