We have been reading about dragons recently - because it's Chinese New Year, my supermulticultural daughter tells me.
Apparently, they didn't use knives at lunchtime in school on Thursday. In China, it's bad luck to cut on New Year, because you cut your luck.
So, I am beginning the Year of the Rabbit (very close to little a's heart, her favourite toy is a rabbit) with new knowledge and a new story: Chang the painter, who could not refuse the Emperor's demand that he paint eyes into his dragons.
