Just Released: 31st and Final Book in Epic "Journey to the West" Series of Easy-to-Read Chinese Novels
Summary
Verona, PA, October 13, 2022 --( PR.com )-- After five years of intensive work, the writing team of Jeff Pepper and Dr. Xiao Hui Wang have finally published their entire 31-volume series of graded readers based on the classic Chinese novel, "Journey to the West. But high quality reading materials are in short supply.“This is the largest and most ambitious project ever undertaken to create a series of graded readers for people learning the Chinese language,” says Pepper. The "Journey to the West" adaptation by Imagin8 Press simply makes that process enjoyable, that’s why we recommend it to all of our students.”The books, which are available in both paperback and eBook formats, start off easy and become more challenging as the series progresses. And third is Sha Wujing (“sand seeking purity”), a reformed man-eating river demon.All three have been converted to Buddhism by the monk, but they often slip back into their bad habits and cause Tangseng a great deal of trouble. The novel uses a very large vocabulary of 4,500 different words, over 90% of which are not included in the HSK Levels 1-6 taught in schools, making it nearly impossible for most non-native Chinese speakers to read.The series by Pepper and Wang tells the same story unchanged from the original.
