About this book
Dragon Parade is a fictionalized account of Norman Ah Sing who is a successful, newly-arrived Chinese grocer in San Francisco of the 1850s. He is thrilled to be in the Land of the Golden Mountain. He talks to other Chinese owners and plans a Chinese New year like they had in China. This prompts him to invite all to celebrate the Lunar New Year and to organize the first big celebration in 1851 Chinatown.
Alex Haley, as General Editor, contributed to Dragon Parade: A Chinese New Year Story by writing the introduction.
