Review: Great Spooky Story and Great Reading Practice in Chinese - This is a great book in a great series from Mandarin Companion. I would recommend this book to any intermediate student of the Chinese language to practice their reading skills and really build confidence in their learning. As a graded Chinese reader, this book uses the concept of 'extensive reading' and fully accomplishes its goal to provide a fun and enjoyable story, with smooth and relatively 'easy' Chinese vocabulary and grammar. The book allows you to enjoy the story, while internalizing the flow of language and improving your reading comprehension. The story is a fun adaptation of The Monkey's Paw to a spooky Chinese context. I remember this story well from when I was young. Great to read it now in Chinese. Kindle version is great and convenient for language students. You can read on various devices, highlight words as you read, navigate easily, etc.
Review: Fun and empowering read for a beginner / intermediate reader - Really enjoyable to read for a beginner intermediate like me. And to reread! I've been reading the chapters over again out loud, which is excellent practice and encourages me to become more fluent in Chinese speaking. I really need more confidence applying the Chinese that I know to reading and especially speaking, and this helps. The traditional characters version is great. There were only one or two mistakes (the only one I recall is 雲南 spelled 云南 in one place). Sadly Kindle readers provide simplified Chinese dictionaries only, but that's for desertcart to fix. I found the end of the story a little abrupt and disappointing, but that's just the story. I guess I'll have to start a new one soon.
