Once Upon a Mid-Autumn Moon in China

Eleven Bedtime Tales of Mooncakes, Lanterns & the Mid-Autumn Festival — Chinese Folktales for Kids Ages 4–10

by Hoang Le

Paperback2026

Where the Mid-Autumn Festival began.

Under the same bright harvest moon that rises over the old walls of China, eleven gentle bedtime tales glow to life — mooncakes shared, riddle-lanterns lit, and the Jade Rabbit's quiet promise kept.

From The Littlest Lantern to Grandmother's Mooncake Secret, every story ends with a gentle lesson to sleep on — kindness, patience, honesty, and respect for elders — plus a Word Nook of new words to treasure, with real Chinese characters.

A beautiful Moon Festival gift for kids ages 4–10: a keepsake Chinese folktale picture book, one story a night.
