We are all kids August 6, 2008 Reviewer: Chirine Mallat from Montreal, QC Canada   I came across the 3 Fun With Chinese Characters books when I was in Hangzhou, China.  I really liked the way each character had pictures explaining their evolution and a short paragraph elaborating the meaning.  Having a very basic knowledge of Mandarin language, these books were perfect in forging characters in my memory and understanding.  Unfortunately, the books were not easy to find.  Now I'm back home and I can't tell you how happy I was to find them on ChildBook.com  Even though the books here might be for children, I think we are all kids when it comes to learning something new.  And this trilogy is perfect to do so.
