Children learning Mandarin Chinese as a second language need stories about them - their voices and their experiences. This blog is dedicated to creating and telling those stories.

四季叢書上市了 Four Seasons Books Are Available in Print
It took two years... well, three years if you count the very initial writing of the spring poem, to producing the print version of the Four Seasons series. I re-learned photography, re-worked the texts with editors, and re-arranged the layouts with the help of a talented graphic designer. Lots of technical details throughout the production process. The Chinese saying "好事多磨 (hao shi duo mou)" is very true as good things do and should take long. Now I have something to show my ideal of bilingual stories as a reflection of our living at the intersection of Chinese and Canadian cultures. You can email me (iningtracychao at gmail dot com) to purchase the books or just to let me know what you think about the books. I love hearing from the readers - young and old!
