This title for young children demystifies Chinese characters through attractive picture graphics and imaginative activities to help them learn how to read the Chinese language in a fun easy way. It will lay the foundation to enable children to reach basic Chinese literacy quickly via the Chinese character symbols presented in simple picture format grouped into favourite themes, including the body, animals, and nature. The more characters children learn, the more characters they can make. The author has unpicked Chinese characters and created a simple system for quickly understanding the basic building blocks of the written language. Working with renowned illustrator Noma Bar, she has developed a unique set of illustrations that are engaging and delightful, and offer a glimpse into the wonder of the Chinese language and culture.
