Show FiltersKindergarten Day USA and China
"Experience a day in kindergarten in the USA and China. Readers spend a school day with two kindergarten classes in this flip-me-over book. First visit a class from Schenectady, New York, and then meet a class from Beijing, China, as children learn and play with their teachers and classmates. Clocks throughout the book show the time in the USA and in China, noting that when it’s daytime on one side of the world, it’s nighttime on the other. Includes notes about the Chinese language, pinyin (a system for pronouncing Chinese words), and telling time." -- publisher
A Bicycle in Beijing
"One day, while living in a hutong in Beijing, a boy returns home to find that his dad has purchased a shiny new bike for work. He begs his father to let him ride it. When his father finally agrees, he races around the neighborhood to show off the bike. Before long, the boy gets careless. He rips his pants, lets his friends pile on like acrobats in the circus, and finally wrecks the bike. Sheepishly, he returns the bike to his dad, who stays up all night fixing it. The experience teaches him the value of the bike and instills a deep respect for his father"-- Amazon
