Lunar New Year Love Story, New OGN From Gene Luen Yang & LeUyen Pham
Lunar New Year Love Story, is a new YA graphic novel by Printz Medal winner Gene Luen Yang and Caldecott Honoree LeUyen Pham to be published in the winter of 2024 by Mark Siegel and Connie Hsu at First Second.
Val, a teen turned cynical after learning about a family secret, rejects all things romantic even though she's named in honor of Valentine's Day. But when sparks fly at a Lunar New Year lion dance, her fortunes and future begin to change. Interwoven with Tết, Seol-Nal, and Xin Nian traditions, this is a love story about families, faith, and finding hope.
