A wonderful bedtime read to wind down after a long day.

Translated from the classic Goodnight, Moon by Margaret Wise Brown.
Sometimes the rhyming cadences may not be captured when translated to Mandarin with a total different set of sounds and phonemes - but My Story Treasury believe that bringing in the Mandarin versions of English classics has its place to help our young ones appreciate Mandarin better!

Once, a preschool principal shared that she was on the lookout for the popular English classics translated to Mandarin! When I asked why, she said that kids naturally gravitate to what they are familiar with, so if they already know the popular classic stories in English, it makes sense to bring them the same titles in Mandarin.

Why not try to read the English and Mandarin versions of these classics side by side?

Essential book for any young reader

I love reading Goodnight Moon to my child, so simple yet so straight to the point. Classics are always around for a reason.
