{"product_id":"crouching-tiger","title":"Crouching Tiger","description":"A Chinese-American boy gains a new understanding of his Chinese grandfather in this celebratory story of family, martial arts, and the Chinese New Year.\n\nVinson is very excited when his grandfather comes from China for a visit. When Grandpa practices tai chi in the garden, Vinson asks to learn, hoping it will be like kung fu, full of kicks and punches. But tai chi’s meditative postures are slow and still, and Vinson quickly gets bored. He can’t understand why Grandpa insists on calling him by his Chinese name, Ming Da, or why he has to wear a traditional Chinese jacket to the Chinese New Year parade. As the parade assembles, however, he notices the great respect given to his grandfather and the lion dancers under his training. And when Vinson is offered a role in the parade, he realizes that being part Chinese can be pretty cool—and is ready to start learning from his grandpa’s martial-arts mastery in earnest.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0763646423\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0763646423.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Nascimbene, Yan|Compestine, Ying Chang\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Former library book with little sign of wear or use.  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43264936509501,"sku":"BVV.0763646423.VG","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/0763646423-0.jpg?v=1781213928","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/crouching-tiger","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
