Learning Chinese can seem daunting, but this fun text makes it a cinch with wonderful photos, examples, and easy-to-follow organization.  Essential words and concepts are represented here in both Pinyin and Chinese characters.  It's indispensable for students, travelers, and anyone who'd like to get an edge in this increasingly multicultural world.This helpful memory aid also serves as a great refresher course for those who need to brush up on their Mandarin.  Clear, color-saturated photos keep it lively and relevant, suitable for learners of all ages.  It's a great book to use with the kids, but also perfect for professionals because it doesn't pander to the younger set- it's straightforward and a wonderful tool for learning this beautiful language.
