Mindy Kim and the Lunar New Year Parade by Lyla Lee

January 4, 2025: Mindy Kim and the Lunar New Year Parade by Lyla Lee, illustrated by Dung Ho

Mindy is excited to celebrate the Lunar New Year! Even though it’s the first one without her mom, Mindy is determined to enjoy the day. She decides to make traditional Korean New Year food, a rice cake soup that’s her favorite. But things aren’t going quite to plan, and the celebration doesn’t feel the same as it did before.

With the help of her family and friends, can Mindy find a way to still enjoy her old holiday traditions, and create new ones along the way?

A limited number of kits will be available for pick-up beginning Saturday, January 4, 2025 on a first-come, first-served basis at each library branch.

A small number of kits will also be available for home delivery. Please contact Youth Services at 541-766-6794 for more information.
