About this listen

Chinese Stories for Language Learners: Elementary – Volume 2 is the exciting continuation of the most beloved Chinese story series for learners! This new volume is designed especially for those who love learning the Chinese language and culture through rich, engaging stories.

Extensive and enjoyable reading and listening is one of the most effective ways to build vocabulary, internalize sentence structures, and gain cultural insight. That’s why we’ve followed the approach of Volume 1 and now present you with a fresh collection of Chinese folktales, myths, fables, idioms, proverbs, and both historical and modern stories—all carefully selected for elementary-level learners.

This is a bilingual Chinese-English audiobook version of the book, featuring line-by-line narration—Chinese first, followed by English—designed to help you practice your listening and speaking skills in both languages. At the end of each story, you’ll also find either a Culture Corner or a summary in English, included to help you better understand the cultural background and context of the story.

With this book, you will:

  • Uncover the origins of Chinese iconic cultural symbols and traditional festivals;
  • Discover life lessons and timeless wisdom from China’s greatest classics;
  • Gain deep insights into Chinese culture and historical knowledge;
  • Learn witty idioms and proverbs to impress your peers and teachers.

Prepare to embark on a fun and enriching learning journey that will not only boost your Chinese language skills but also offer a deeper understanding of a culture that has flourished for over 5,000 years.

For the best learning experience, we recommend pairing this audiobook with the paperback or eBook edition, available at LingLingMandarin's website. These editions include additional learning materials such as vocabulary lists, grammar explanations, and practice activities to reinforce what you hear.

Please note: This audiobook is in English and Chinese.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
