The Beat of the Dragon Boat
Christina Matula
On the night before the Dragon Boat Festival, a young boy asks his grandfather how the dragon boat races first began. His grandfather tells him that legend has it that the races started in the ancient time of the Dragon King, when every lake and river had a guardian dragon. In Chinese culture, dragons symbolize good luck, and have great power, especially over water and weather. On race day at the harbor, all the boats have a carved dragon head. As a final touch, to wake up their team's boat, the boy paints in the dragon's eye. But once the race is underway, their boat is in last place. How can they wake their dragon?
