Book Description
FROM THE BACK COVER A heart-warming story about one little girl who celebrates her birthday with family and friends. Today is a special day for this little girl: she's turning ten and all of her family and friends are coming to her birthday party! She greets each of the guests as they arrive with birthday cake and presents. After a fun filled day of fun and games, it's time to pack up and go home, a little older and wiser. Perfect for Cantonese speakers and bilingual/multilingual families who want to encourage their children to speak more Cantonese. Children ages 2 to 6 will love the fun and engaging rhyme of the everyday conversational Cantonese phrases. Designed for non-native speakers and native speakers who struggle with reading Chinese. Phonetic Jyutping romanisation is included alongside Traditional Chinese to help with pronunciation. No dictionary required! Visit www.catlikestudio.com/readalong/ for the free read-along audio books in Cantonese and English.ABOUT THE AUTHOR Deborah Lau was born in Hong Kong but grew up in Australia. As a child, she loved to read but hated Chinese school: there was too much rote memorisation and not enough fun. When her daughter turned 3, Deborah searched for Chinese/bilingual books like her beloved English children's classics: captivating stories with vivid characters told in everyday language?but she struggled. Most are written for Mandarin speakers or assume the adult reader is fluent-and she can't even read the Chinese menu in a restaurant. It was hard to keep her daughter interested when she always had to stop reading to look up or explain the Chinese characters and phrases (especially since standard written Chinese is very different to spoken Cantonese). So she wrote a book they could read together?without a dictionary!
