In the Level 1 Cool Panda Chinese readers, there are 40 books in total, revolving around 10 most common preschool themes:
- Numbers and colours
- Animals
- Family and Clothes
- Fruits and Food
- Body Parts and Actions
- Calendar and Time
- Shapes and Positions
- Weather and Seasons
- House, Home and Daily Routines
- Chinese Culture
There are 4 books in each theme. Which means that the Chinese vocabulary words for that theme are adequately repeated throughout those 4 books. The sentences are short, one sentence per page, and that sentence is repeated throughout the book. Which reminds me very much of the Odonata preschool series Learn Sentence Structure.
The illustrations in the books are varied, ranging from cartoony Looney Tunes like graphics, to watercolour illustrations.
