SynopsisAn orphan girl gets help from a goose. A poor family receives a magical gift. A boy is stranded alone on a ship in a storm. And two magicians perform a deadly trick. Believe it or not, it's possible for you to read and understand the four wonderful stories in this book even if you start off not knowing a single word of Chinese We won't lie to you and say it will be easy, but with time and patience you can certainly do it. Each page of Chinese faces a page of pinyin (phonetic spelling), so if you don't recognize a word, you can check the pinyin to see how it's pronounced. You can then look up the word's meaning in the glossary in the back of the book. A full English translation is also included. You can also listen to a complete audiobook of all four stories, available free on YouTube and downloadable from our website. These stories are written by the best-selling writing team of Jeff Pepper and Xiao Hui Wang, authors of the Journey to the West series of graded readers, translations of Chinese classics including the Dao De Jing , the Art of War , and the San Zi Jing , and lots of other great books.
