Book Description

Inspired by the love of Tiger mothers and their love of drilling education into children, the 3x bilingual book series uses the method of repetition to help children remember new words in different languages. Turning learning into a game, children gain confidence to speak out loud the new vocabulary they have gained after parents lead by speaking a word multiple times. Books available in Chinese/English, Japanese/English with more languages coming soon!

Author bio

Writing has always been something she wanted to do although she was almost tossed out of her Catholic all girls high school writing club for writing dark and weird stories. She is a germaphobe with a Nuclear Medicine background and holds a MBA in Strategy & Marketing. Recently she became the Present of Dark Helix Press, an Indie Press which publishes diverse fantasy, science fiction, raw non-fiction.
