The chapters start with vocabulary and then there are short easy sentences. They are written in characters and pinyin after. The English translation is on the side. I like to cover the pinyin and try to read the characters then write out the pinyin on a separate sheet of paper. This book has great mix of characters you know if you have some basic Chinese and introduces new characters contextually so it makes it easy to learn them. I like the online readings of the chapters that you can stream or download. Really helps with learning to pronounce as well as recognize the characters. A great help on my Chinese language learning journey. I love learning to read in Chinese. This is a simple to follow book that can quickly raise your vocabulary level. I read it over over.
