Text in Chinese and English. Summary:  "A simple system for quickly understanding the basic building blocks of written Chinese. Working with illustrator Noma Bar, the author transforms Chinese characters into charming pictograms that are easy to remember. She first teaches the key characters, called radicals, that are the language's foundation, and then shows how they can be combined to form new words and even phrases. Once you've mastered these key characters, you can practice your skills with three stories -- a fairy tale, an Asian legend, and a contemporary fable -- told using the radicals. Readers will be able to navigate a Chinese menu, read signs and billboards, and grasp the meaning of most articles in a Chinese newspaper"--Provided by publisher.
