HAPPY CHINESE LUNAR NEW YEAR Maria Pappas


Happy Chinese New Year. It is the year of the rabbit and to celebrate we have Maria Pappas of PBS' Arthur being kidnapped in a Cheongsam dress.

For Chinese people, the rabbit is a tame creature representing hope and life for a long time. It is tender and lovely. The moon goddess Chang'e in the Chinese legend has a rabbit as her pet, which stimulates the thought that only this creature is amiable enough to match her noble beauty. Another way of saying is that the Rabbit is the incarnation of the moon goddess per se and it is always a symbol of pureness and auspiciousness.

People born in the Year of the Rabbit are gentle and approachable. They have a decent, noble and elegant manner.

Maria Pappas is a third grader in Mr. Ratburn's class at Lakewood Elementary School.

Maria is usually a bit shy. In spite of this, however, she does often participate in class lessons. She is also willing to have lines in a class play, so long as they aren't solo lines. This is because she has a stutter and did not want everyone to know about it. However, with practice her speaking has improved and her confidence with it.
