A young boy shares a little house in Beijing with 23 cats. His friend comes to visit, but the two of them can’t sit down, can’t study, and can’t even eat dinner together because of all the cats. What to do? The answer, which involves a very large dog, will surprise and delight you.
This wonderful little tale is for beginning Chinese students of all ages. Its tiny vocabulary of just 101 words is taken from the HSK-1 list of words used to teach beginning students of Chinese. Each page of Simplified Chinese is faced by an opposite page of pinyin (phonetic spelling), so if a reader gets stuck on an unfamiliar word they can check it against the pinyin. A complete glossary and English translation is in the back of the book, and a free audiobook is available on YouTube and can be downloaded from the Imagin8 Press website.
REVIEWS FROM CHINESE TEACHERS:
“Twenty Three Cats is a very cute story, an easy read for beginning Chinese learners. Repetitions in the vocabulary and sentence structure help novice students learn easily. The drawings are vivid and thoughtful to reflect the reading. I love that the pinyin is provided on the opposite page for a quick reference, and not next to the characters directly. I also find it useful for novice learners to have an English version of the story as well as a glossary towards the end of the book.” - Treena Larson, Chinese and DE&I Teacher, University of Chicago Laboratory Schools
“This is a very good book for beginners to learn Chinese and master the HSK1 vocabulary. This book can not only attract children’s attention, but is also a very good resource for adult learners. I think this book is a perfect option for children and adult learners who are looking for a way to learn basic Chinese.” – Tong Chen, Lecturer in Chinese, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Global Languages; board member, Chinese Teachers Association
“This is a lovely story full of imagination. The dialogues make it easy for beginner readers to understand, and the repetition of high-frequency words deepens the memory of language. Kids will be interested in learning Chinese and then actually learn it.” - Rongrong Lin, Chinese Teacher, New Trier High School, Northfield IL
“This is an engaging and fun story for beginners in learning Chinese, with lots of high-frequency words and expressions repeated throughout. While building up learners' confidence and interest, this book is also an excellent resource for Chinese teachers with a variety of uses. Thank you for making another great book in Chinese for us!” - Jin Yin, Chinese Language Teacher, University of Chicago Laboratory Schools
“Twenty Three Cats will be a good friend to Chinese beginners. As a Chinese language teacher, I know that combining new words into stories is a very effective teaching method. Interesting plots and pictures can help students form schema memory and enhance those memories, making Chinese learning more attractive.” - Yang Jiali, Chinese Language Teacher, Confucius Institute in Sofia, Bulgaria
“This is a simple but creative and helpful book for beginning Chinese language learners!" – Shijuan Liu, Associate Professor of Chinese, Indiana University of Pennsylvania
