This biography, written in easy-to-read Simplified Chinese, introduces readers to the life and ideas of Confucius (Kongzi), one of the most influential thinkers in Chinese history. Born during a time of political conflict and social instability, Confucius developed a philosophy centered on ethics, learning, family, and responsible leadership. Although he faced challenges in his own lifetime and struggled to find official support for his reforms, his teachings were preserved by his students and have shaped generations of Chinese society.
Through a series of engaging stories, this book traces Confucius’s early life, his years of teaching and travel, and his lasting impact on education, government, and moral thought. Readers will gain an understanding of the man himself, the world he lived in, and the ideas that helped shape a civilization.
The story, the 7th and final volume in the Heroes of Ancient China series, is told using only 950 different Chinese words. It includes pinyin and English translations and a complete glossary. A free audiobook is available on YouTube.
