China is a big, bustling place, and I have loved every minute of my time here. As of this writing, I have been living in Suzhou for 17 months. While I have learned some Chinese, I can still barely get by in basic conversations.

That's where this little book comes in! REVIEW: I've had my eye on this book for quite awhile now. We have three copies in my library, and the More reviews at.

We have three copies in my library, and the students do check it out occasionally. I like that I already knew many of the phrases (numbers, hello and goodbye, thank you, etc.), but there were lots of new and useful phrases that were new to me. The book emphasizes learning and practicing the four tones, which I think is the hardest part of learning to speak Chinese.

I especially loved the guide to marketplace haggling, something I do not like to do and will avoid if at all possible. At least when I do find myself in a haggling situation, I know a bit more about how it works. I also like the colorful, easy-on-the-eyes layout. This book is not linear; rather, it has boxes of text in various sizes, fonts, and colors.

This would be a great starter guide for children as well. If you are interested in learning Chinese, this is an excellent place to start. I will suggest that this book and audio CD be read/played many times--one time through is definitely not enough.

Even though I hear these words and phrases all day long, I won't remember them after only one read of this book. THE BOTTOM LINE: An excellent guide to learning basic Chinese. Use the CD and play it often so you can learn the words and tones. This is a beginner's guide; you will need more than just this to really learn Chinese, but it is a great start.

STATUS IN MY LIBRARY: We have three copies, and they do get checked out. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES FOR LEARNING BASIC CHINESE: (video, audio, and workbook series)--There are some free videos on YouTube if you want to try it out first. I am planning to purchase this program to work on over our Christmas holiday break.

--This is another book in our library that I plan to read. It takes Chinese characters and draws pictures around them to help readers remember the characters. Flashcards and a Memory game are also available in the series. I started learning Mandarin a little over a month ago, so I decided to get a couple of books to accompany the one I already have for class, to get a slightly different perspective and to familiarize myself with the language. I bought this one solely because of the positive reviews I'd seen on the web - if I hadn't read them I would never have picked up this book, since the title is so ridiculous.

There's nothing 'easy-peasy' about Mandarin, unless you're a native speaker, I guess.

There's nothing 'easy-peasy' about Mandarin, unless you're a native speaker, I guess. Still, this is a good enough book for those who, like me, are just starting out. It touches upon many interesting cultural facts, like traditions, festivals and the lunar calendar, and covers basic conversation skills and grammar. The CD is quite useful to get the pronunciations right.
