There are so many benefits when you start at a young age.
All of Katrina Liu's books are intended for non-native speakers and parents interested in fostering the development of dual-language with their children. Each book contains vibrant full-color illustrations, large Cantonese characters with Pinyin and English for support. They are written in everyday dialog making it easier for beginner learners to pick up the language.
Katrina Liu is an American-born-Chinese mom and author. Her goal is to create beautiful engaging books that support non-native speakers for children and adults alike. Her books include relatable experiences and cultural differences that resonate with modern-day American families which many books from China do not have.
