Susan is stuck in her hokey small town USA home, plagued by all the first-world problems she can imagine. It doesn't seem anything will ever change...until a fateful culinary disaster sends her and her family outward and upward on a quest for fame, fortune and...sled dogs? A chapter book all in Chinese for beginning students, with a quirky and engaging story told using only 212 headwords and 207 unique Chinese characters. Chapter 1 has only 23 headwords and could easily be read by students in their first month of Chinese study. This new illustrated edition keeps substantially the same text as the first edition, and corresponds to the content of the Zhongwen Bu Mafan! Chinese curriculum from Squid For Brains.
