smiley said: Join Riley on his second adventure into the depths of Hong Kong and Macau, as he searches for the traditional dancing lion found only during Chinese New Year. On the way, Riley encounters a line-up of hilarious dancing lions – from rappers and ballerinas to Highland flingers – but will he find the true dancing lion that heralds a bright new year? And is this traditional lion really what he appears to be? The second book in the Riley travelogue series, this unique multi-media picture book also features stunning black and white photos of Hong Kong, photographs of a real life toy plane, and brand new, comical illustrations by talented Australian artist Kieron Pratt. Children and adults alike will delight in a glorious tour through the magnificence of modern day Hong Kong, unfolding surprise after surprise, as well as a smattering of culture, history and, of course – childlike adventure.
