ôMy name is Mimi, IÆm eight years old, and IÆm learning calligraphy!"In My First Book of Chinese Calligraphy, Mimi will guide your journey to the special wonders of artistic Chinese writing. Join Mimi as she takes the first steps towards learning stroke sequence; the composition of the characters; the handling of the brush, paper and ink; and the tools that make up the ôfour treasuresö of the calligrapher. The included interactive CD-ROM enables learners to play creative games to see, hear, and try Chinese writing; listen to the pronunciation of the Chinese characters; observe calligraphers in action and print the characters to create practice pages. A fun and engaging way to learn, My First Book of Chinese Calligraphy is an excellent introduction to China and one of her most recognizable arts for young people.
