I chanced upon this beautiful set of books at the library recently.

They scored a ten for me in terms of illustrations, content and level of difficulty!
Basically, it’s another Chinese picture book translated from a foreign author. Which are the best Chinese books to me! Heh. Possibly because I prefer their storylines and illustrations.
I had to check the dictionary on what 匈 stood for. Turns out it is “xiong1” for “xiong1 ya3 li4” – Hungary! So the original story was written by a 匈牙利🇭🇺人。Wow.

The protagonist is a little girl called Sophie, and she gets up to all sorts of hi-jinks! Quirky and imaginative, the stories and whimsical illustrations captured our hearts.



Hope you enjoy them too!
