"This collection pairs English-language nursery rhymes and songs with their counterparts from China. Wu also includes some lesser-known English-language selections. The book is organized into themes: Outside, Inside, Party, Play, and Night. Hickory Dickory Dock shares a spread with Little Mouse, a rhyme about a mouse that climbed a lamp to eat the oil and can't get down. The Chinese rhymes are presented in simplified characters, pinyin Romanization, and translated into English. Large, brightly colored illustrations feature a multiethnic cast of children and adults. Most spreads have additional information about Chinese culture and ask readers to find items in the art. This book works best for one-on-one reading or as a resource for educators and parents."--"School Library Journal"

Faye-Lynn Wu was born and raised in Taiwan. Her experiences in raising her children in the U.S. and managing language programs for early education have led to her focus on introducing kids to language in the most positive way possible. Wu is the admissions officer at an independent school in Berkeley, serves as a board member of a Chinese language school, and teaches weekend Mandarin classes. Kieren Dutcher is an artist, graphic designer, and elementary school teacher who figured out early on that if she switched to teaching art, she wouldn't have to grade papers. She currently is an art teacher at an elementary school in the Oakland area, and also works as an illustrator and graphic designer. She lives in Oakland with her husband, two kids and a very crafty dog.
