- Abstract
- en_US Pinyin, I am learning, is the official phonetic system for transcribing the Mandarin pronunciations of Chinese characters into the Latin alphabet in the People's Republic of China. That is just what this book presents: three Roman letters above each character in Chinese. As the opening T of C (6-7) shows, there are here some ninety-nine fables on 143 pages. Colorful illustrations adorn part of a page, take a whole page, or even take a two-page spread. Readers without Chinese will recognize many familiar Aesopic fables here. Among the best illustrated are FM (12), GA (21), The Eagle and the Beetle (42), SW (45-47), The Astronomer (58), TB (71), FWT (83), TH (85), CJ (91), FG (93), FS (107-8), WC (119), and MM (141). My prize among all these goes to TB. In 2001, the Chinese Ministry of Education designated this book as one of the compulsory readings for Chinese.
