Many young American readers are already familiar with Ada Twist, Scientist (阿达想当科学家 ā dá xiǎng dāng kē xué jiā), Rosie Revere, Engineer (罗西想当发明家 luó xī xiǎng dāng fā míng jiā), and Iggy Peck, Architect (乔伊想当建筑师 qiáo yī xiǎng dāng jiàn zhù shī). This familiarity makes the Chinese editions ideal for a scaffolded Chinese reading experience.
These adorably illustrated books tell the stories of three inventive and enterprising young tinkerers--who each persevere and pursue their passions despite others' doubts. Full of lessons for children and adults alike, these books are a welcome addition to any home or classroom full of Chinese learners.

Is my child ready for this set?
"Read to me": Children ages 4+ will enjoy having these books read to them either by Luka or a caregiver.

Option to pair with Luka:
Consider adding Luka, the reading companion, to your order. Luka reads all 3 books included in this set.
Set Luka in front of a book, and it will read aloud any page your child turns to-- creating a unique, independent physical book reading experience even if your child isn't ready to read by herself. Luka reads 70,000 Chinese children's picture books and thousands of English children's books.
Happy learning!
