Count Your Way Through China (Count Your Way Around the World Series) Reviews


  • Volkert

    Picture book teaching the Chinese characters and pronunciation for numbers 1-10 and teaching concepts about Chinese culture and history with each. The concepts are a little above the primary age normally targeted for picture books, but could be used as a conversation starter, and could also be effectively used with older kids.

  • Laurie Wheeler

    Interesting way to learn about China that my kids used in their Classical Dialectic homeschool history class.

    We read this last week for our geography study. We're done with Australia and they chose China as the next country....mostly so they could have a big Chinese food party at the end.

    This is a short, simple book that teaches you how to count to 10, how to pronounce it and write it. For each number there is a tidbit of information about something cultural or historical. We learned some new things, but it was obviously not in depth. This book would work really well for very early elementary (maybe up to grade 2), but doesn't have nearly enough to make it a 'must have' for the older boys.

    Learning how to count in Chinese, while explaining facts about China with the numbers. I learned a little about both :).

  • Camille Tesch

    China ages 6-8

  • Renae

    First grade read aloud- China unit before Chinese numeral writing.

  • Zaya

    Though I can't read the numbers I found it very interesting. I would've of loved it more, if it were longer.

    We read this to complement our middle ages history lesson about China.
