Produktbeschreibung
The story of Mulan, the young girl who joins the army to save her family and her country, is at least 1500 years old. Over the centuries, it has inspired dozens of poems, plays, novels, songs, and more recently, graphic novels, TV shows and films. The details of the story vary, but the core is always the same: a young girl living with her family in a small Chinese village learns that the army requires each family to contribute one man to fight invaders from the North. To save her elderly father she disguises herself as a young man and enlists in the army; she excels at fighting, strategy and leadership and rises through the ranks; the war ends successfully, she is recognized as a hero and is offered rewards by the Emperor; she declines the rewards and humbly chooses to return to her family and take up the traditional life of a village woman.

This wonderful little book consists of just 30 six-line verses, and lets beginning students enjoy a great story while also learning to read Simplified Chinese. It uses a minimal vocabulary of just 240 words, most of which are in the standard HSK1 and HSK2 word lists. Proper nouns are underlined, and new words are defined on the page where they first appear. Each page of Chinese also contains a pinyin (romanized spelling) version. This helps beginning readers by letting them sound out the words instead of having to recognize each character in the main text. The pinyin is also useful for looking up word definitions in the glossary. And there's an English translation at the end.

An audiobook version is available on YouTube on the Imagin8 Press channel, and can also be downloaded from the Imagin8 Press website.

Jeff Pepper has written many books in Chinese and English, including the best-seller The Rise of the Monkey King, and innovative translations of Dao De Jing,The Art of War (Sunzi Bing Fa), and the Three Character Classic (San Zi Jing)
