Chinese Books

Toon Books

We have a collection of ToonBooks which are a great bridging tool between picture books and chapter books. I'm happy to let you know that they are also supported by an online site that helps the student by reading aloud. Some of the titles can also be read in a number of other languages including Chinese and French. Please click on the image below.
