An 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.

This book is written in Simplified Chinese, with pinyin and English. available in paperback and ebook.
