The Gordon & Li Li series introduces basic Chinese words to young children. The Elmer’s book series features an adventurous elephant and the short stories keep the attention of the young children. “In the Snow”, like “At the Beach” (from our last month’s picks) introduces ten Chinese pictogram characters on a walk through a forest on a snowy day.
