ReviewsEach book in this series has an instructional page explaining the format and basics about the mechanics of the language. The alphabet and pronunciations of the individual letters and letter combinations found within each language are also provided. Appealing two-page full-color cartoon layouts illustrate the use of the language in various situations such as School, Weather, and Home. The cartoons' speech bubbles are filled with the foreign language phrase or word, the English translation, and phonetic pronunciation. Each volume concludes with numbers and colors. This series is straightforward, provides basic phrases and words, and because the books follow the same format, moving from one to another is easy and familiar. Websites through the publisher's portal are not always easily navigated by young readers, even though they are on-topic. Recommended.

  • Needs English pronunciation.

    This is a well designed book with useful vocabulary (to some degree). However, it would be very helpful if they had the English pronunciation next to the Chinese word. I kept having to flip to the sound chart in the front of the book, then go back and try to figure out how to pronounce the word in Chinese. This was very frustrating, and my friend, Chen (from Beijing), told me my pronunciation was way off and that the book is "no good."
