According to the site:

"My First Chinese Words series is for the beginning young learner with no prior exposure to Chinese. This set of 36 size-appropriate storybooks is designed with the idea that young children learn best when the information given is relevant to their everyday lives, which makes learning fun and exciting. The stories contain meaningful sentence structures, teaching students to communicate in full sentences as opposed to have them memorize individual characters. The series also use overlapping content and a predictable narrative structure to provide a springboard for creative role-playing and acting. This gives children the opportunity to quickly apply what they learn in real-life situations as well as start communicating in Chinese right away. "


Since 2008, eight U.S. states have conducted formal reviews for Chinese language materials that must align and correlate to their state standards. We are happy to announce that Better Chinese's curricular materials have been adopted and approved by all eight states: Georgia, Idaho, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia and most recently, in 2010, Texas
