AMAZING!! Our Toddler Can Now Speak Cantonese!

My wife and I have STRUGGLED for years to find a quality audio book that would teach Cantonese at a beginner level. We are both ABCs 1st generation Chinese with immigrant parents. Being away from our families due to current 2021 restrictions meant that it was even harder to socialize our daughter Bailey to sounds of her native language.

Thankfully, this audio book provided everything we needed and more by providing accurate breakdowns on the proper Cantonese pronunciation at a beginner level for our daughter to follow and practice over time. There is even the option to slow the narration speed down on the audiobook for additional practice or for basic tone breakdowns.

It was truly amazing to see Bailey's progression. We are very impressed with this audio book and would highly recommend to friends and family!

Great audible to go along with the book!

The Dim Sum, Please! Audible is a great addition to have my daughter follow along with the book. Since I am an ABC and also being the youngest sibling, I did not have the chance to learn Cantonese as well as my older sibling. With that being said, the audible helped my young daughter and I learn the tones and pronunciation together! Now we can order dim sum at the restaurant in Chinese instead of just pointing at the items! My daughter loves practicing the words at dim sum and the waitresses are always surprised she can speak it so well. Usually I get annoyed of the voices in Audibles, but the narration for this book was great!
