Illustrated Classic Chinese Poems for Children (English-Chinese Edition): 81 Poems Translated by Xu Yuanchong

81 Poems on Nature, Family and Friendship, with Hand-Drawn Illustrations, Pinyin and Read-Along Audio — Rhymed English Translations by Xu Yuanchong, Made for Young Readers
This is a bilingual picture book of classic Chinese poems, made for children but beautiful enough for adults to keep. It brings together 81 poems that Chinese children learn in school—poems about nature, family, and friendship—each one paired with a hand-drawn illustration by Zhang Weixin. The English translations are by Xu Yuanchong, one of China’s most celebrated literary translators, and the Chinese text comes with pinyin. You can also scan the QR code to hear the poems sung by a child’s voice. If you want to introduce a young reader to Chinese poetry through pictures, pinyin, and a trusted translation—rather than a textbook or a text-only collection—this is it.
