There is the big dipper in Ursa Major, the Little dipper in Ursa Minor, the southern dipper in Saggitarius...
There is ancient chinese book that refers to five dippers in the sky...does anyone know where they are?

Well I have never heard of a dipper in Sagittarius, but now that you mention it, the handle side of the teapot does look like a dipper. Then there is the Pleiades star cluster that looks like a really small dipper. If there is a 5th one, I can't think of it.
