Official synopsis Publisher
A Chinese child and their family use first words in English and Mandarin to start and go about their day. From “Good morning” to “Good night” learn how to say words and phrases about food, toys, colors, vehicles, and manners! Learning new languages is fun and easy for toddlers and preschoolers. Lively illustrations help preschoolers guess the correct words for each everyday scene. It’s never too early to begin learning a second language. Studies show that from birth to age 8, children have a greater capacity for learning a new language because the language center of their brains is still developing.
