Simple read good for toddlers

Our son really liked this set of books, which are fun and seem to be of decent quality (especially for a softcover set).

However, these books are really more dual monolingual than bilingual. The main book is only in Chinese, while the English version is relegated to the back with very small pictures. This is different than other bilingual books which can have Chinese, English (and sometimes even pinyin) all as part of the main book.

That being said, the photos on the website show this format, so it shouldn't come as a complete surprise.

My almost three year old loves these books. I like that the vocabulary is appropriately expansive for a little kid - enough words that she understands so she doesn't feel lost, but also a decent amount of new words/phrases so she can learn.

Great bilingual books. I prefer the bilingual ones because neither my husband nor I speak mandarin and these help us all learn.

Fun book for my 5 and 3 year old girls. They love Peppa and George! I like that the books are both in English and Mandarin to review vocabulary.

I have found the subject matter and storyline engaging for my 3 kids (ages 3. 6, 7). The boys especially love the book about recycling. My 7 year old knows 500 words and will read these books with my help. My 3 and 6 year old enjoy listening to me read to them. We’ve found these books to be just right for our family!m. We only started teaching them chinese 4 months ago and have found some other books too hard for them to understand but because these stories are more about daily life, they have been the right level for us.
