I always thought the place mats at the Chinese place told me my animal in Chinese astrology. But wait! I never thought to take into consideration when is Chinese New Year! Guess what - I was born in January, so their year and my year are not the same - Now I know! This book is crammed full of information, illustrations and charts. Really cool book.
Love this book. It is more a reference than anything else. I have had this book for over a decade and still love how it is so spot on! Where I used to look up my high school buddy's astrological characters, I now look up my kids :)
