The Adventures of Max and Nicky (Chinese, Bilingual Edition): An Epic Story of Friendship

As an online ESL Teacher who teaches in China, I found that my book was loved by my students. Thus I created a bilingual edition that makes this book an ideal teaching and reference book for both Chinese (Simplified Chinese) and English, early readers. In addition, a link is provided where the student can listen to the author read the book. As for the story, it's a fun, funny, and heartwarming story about the importance of friendship, determination, and the ultimate power of acceptance. This remarkable book follows the antics of two best friends, Max, and Nicky who do what they do best:
Nicky the Red ball loves to Bounce!

Max the big dog loves to Pounce! All is well until Nicky goes missing! Max does everything in his power to find his favorite toy and best friend. He looks everywhere until finally, he sees him up in a tree! Why won't Nicky come down?
Max begged his friend, "Come down let's play! I don't want to wait for one more day."
This is the crux of the story. What will happen next? How will the characters react to their new situations?
In the end, we see what True Friendship is! This sweet, picture book, written in verse, is full of emotion and builds on the camaraderie of Winnie the Pooh. Your child will see the gamut of emotions such as "Sadness," "Joy," "Fear," "Courage," and "Happiness!" It shows us that no matter what happens in life, we can face any challenge as long as we do it together. Kids will fall in love with both characters as each overcomes their challenges in this inspiring book. A glossary of the "Big Words" is included which also benefits the learning aspect.

This book was translated by a Chinese resident (Ningning LV), who is a graduate of the prestigious, Durham University in the United Kingdom. Her translations were then edited by an additional Chinese native-speaking editor who is currently living and working in the U.S.
