Is my child ready for this set?
"Read to me": Children as young as 3 will enjoy having these books read to them either by Luka or a caregiver.
"Read by myself": Text is limited and conversational. The prevalence of common language from daily life makes this series ideal for beginning readers ages 5+ who know 500+ Chinese characters.
Option to pair with Luka:
Consider adding Luka, the reading robot, to your order. Luka reads all 8 books included in this set as well as all book sets in our "Luka Approved" collection.
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. Looking for a toy that is both cool and educational? Consider Luka!
In total, Luka reads 30,000 Chinese children's picture books and 6,000 English children's books. Click to read our founders' personal review of Luka here.
