This was a fun book that talks about lion dancing and the process that goes into learning the moves/routine/music before a performance even begins. I really enjoyed how each chapter introduced a part of lion dancing (moves/movements or music) before reading the chapter. Wei and Hung are both intergral parts to the lions on their team, so it was interesting to see how their previous relationship evolved to where they are now and having to learn how to work together again. I really enjoyed this story and what it taught me about lion dancing - and it’s really neat that the author is a lion dancer as well!
