A pack of illustrated cards with fifty words in simplified Chinese characters, as used on mainland China. Each card shows a picture of an everyday object with the Chinese word on one side and just the word on the other to aid revision. Illustrated with Jo Litchfield's handmade models. The cards can be used to play games, for self-testing, or simply propped up around the house or classroom as useful reminders.
Kirsteen Robson joined Usborne in 1997 with a background in music, education, and Christian publishing. She has written and edited over 300 Usborne titles, from dictionaries and encyclopedias to activity books with flaps, stickers and sounds. Incurably curious, she loves the challenge of writing about anything from aardvarks to zombies.
Felicity has worked for Usborne for over 30 years and has written and edited hundreds of titles, from books on tractors to genetics, from Shakespeare to mental health, and plenty of sparkly unicorns. Felicity is an expert in making tricky topics friendly and accessible to young children and recently has been writing books that celebrate feelings, friendship, empathy, families, and diversity. When she's not writing or researching very specific details on dinosaurs, Felicity can be found tramping through fields and forests foraging for food or just curled up with a bag of Twiglets, a couple of cats and a crossword.
