為生活抓龍，身心其樂融融！
【抓龍的由來】
台灣話稱脊椎為「龍骨」，而「抓龍」、「把龍骨抓一抓」也就是「按摩」的意思。
生肖中的「龍」，是唯一不存在於現實的動物，卻有好多「龍」跟我們生活在一起。
龍在廟裡、故事裡，龍在食物、植物、花朵裡，龍其實也在你我的身體裡。
透過這本圖文書，抓起十六條和台灣生活在一起的「龍」－－像是「龍」眼、烏「龍」茶、小「籠」包、「龍」山寺等等－－十六篇和「龍」相關的人事物、十六句祝福；十六個和台灣土地相連的小風景，也是十六個激勵自己的生活小品。藉由單篇介紹和中英文對照，帶著你我認識生活的土地，也能讓外國朋友認識台灣在地的風土人情，不僅是送給外國友人的創意小禮，也是送給親朋好友們的特別禮物。
你今天為生活抓龍了嗎？
2012年適逢龍年，雄獅文創堂以自身創意的能量，創造《抓龍》圖文書，以年輕一代的美學、雄獅美術較少嘗試的角度，邁開「青春俏皮」的腳步。期盼這本《抓龍》圖文書，能藉由台灣十六種「龍」的特性，為你的生活帶來一股清新的精神力量，開啟你我更多笑「龍」！忙碌的一天，別忘了放鬆一下，給自己抓龍－－鬆一鬆緊繃忙碌，身心其樂融融。

〈Book Description〉
Zhua Long (Grabbing the Dragon) picture book．cotton cloth
In the Chinese horoscope, the only fictional animal is the Dragon.
In Taiwan, the Dragon is transformed into different forms in our lives.
It is found in temples, stories, food, plants, flowers…even in our bodies.
Dragon is pronounced “long” in Mandarin. The spine is called “long gu” in Taiwanese, literally “dragon bone”. Therefore, in Taiwan, “Grabbing the Dragon” means “to massage”.
Let’s investigate the diminishing role that dragons play in the daily lives of the Taiwanese, and put these traditional fun ideas back into our everyday routines.
In the New Year, make a promise to yourself: “Grab the Dragon” at some point every day to relax. No matter what you are doing, it will help you maintain a balanced, healthy lifestyle.
The Chinese phrase “Zhua Long” literally means “Grabbing the Dragon”, and is a metaphor for “massage”. So, if you “Grab the Dragon” in your life it will help keep your body and soul alive.
This is the first of a series of creative activities inspired by the Year of the Dragon in which we will learn how to “Grab the Dragon” for the Earth and ourselves. Slow down your hectic life to maintain a balanced lifestyle.
A cotton cloth is included with this book, to enable you to reduce your use of paper tissues. It could be a handkerchief, a placemat, a small hanging in your room, or…be inspired！
Always carry a cotton cloth to live harmoniously with our Earth.
“Grabbing the Dragon” for the Earth means putting effort into environmental protection to help restore harmony between the Earth and its people.
