        [quote=\"ksme\"]Thanks Brenda. Your dd can read very fast. For my ds, he takes quite long to finish chinese books. I think I shall check out Dangdang and get some in for dec holidays reading.


        The 老猫 is very thin book though.

        If you have an iPad and do not mind reading from it, you can get the whole series for lass than US$5. I bought it end of last year from the Apps store.[/quote]Thanks Trapwithin. I don't have an iPad. :oops:

            Hi, recd today the 宫崎骏作品全辑 (收藏经典), 12 DVD this morning and now dd is watching the show. The picture is very clear and wonderful. Their mandarin are also very clear and easy to understand without the CL subtitle. DD is still exploring how to select CL subtitle.


            Haha. Good entertainment for this school holiday lah. :dancing:
            Hi, some update:

            Seems that we don't have the option to select the subtitle or dialogue. The following is the finding after watching a few show:

            Two don't have subtitle at all
            One with CL fan ti zi
            One with Jpn dialogue but with CL jian ti zi

            Nevertheless, the show are still interesting.

                  True. We get to know about source of dangdang. Tamarind has also introducing xiao mao ri ji otherwise we may not aware of such good novel for upper primary.

                      I like the new SWKD storybook. I just bought from sgshine(local) since I only I only wanted this book. Stories very short. Words not difficult at all. Superb for my 2year old! Are the SWKD levels 5 or 6 more difficult than the stories in this book?

                        My ordered SWKD storybook have not come in yet leh. So I don't know how different as compared to level 5-7. Maybe I will scan a few pages of level 5 - 7 and you see if there is any difference in diffciluty level?

                        I hope there are differences, coz both my DS almost completed book 7 and they loved SWKD alot. Everynight sure ask for it.
