About the series
Momotaro, the boy who came out of a peach. Heungbu and Nolbu, two brothers and a swallow. Tam and Cam, the Cinderella of Vietnam. The monkey who fooled the crocodile, the clever mouse-deer Sang Kancil, and Mulan, who went to war in her father's place. These are the stories told to children in Japan, Korea, Vietnam, India, Indonesia and China.
Each tale is a short read in easy Chinese (A2), close to the traditional story, with simple sentences, plenty of dialogue and a translation beside every paragraph. If you know one of these stories from your own childhood, read it here in Chinese and in your language side by side.
