### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Five Stars
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in India on 22 December 2016*

The best and simple book to learn mandarin, details and rules neatly explained. The CD is an excellent addition.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Useful for beginners
  

*by A***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 January 2019*

This is the book recommended for learning Mandarin as a complete novice at my University, and it has been very helpful to use along my studies. There is also a workbook that is beneficial to use at the same time. I had some trouble getting the cd to work but that was in an xbox, so maybe the format only works on cd players. Can be a bit overwhelming when you first open it but should definitely be considered if learning Mandarin.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The best beginner book I've found
  

*by M***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 November 2018*

I used this as my beginner book: I had started with many others but found the layout and explanations not nearly as good as NPCR. This books has explanations for grammar (which I ignored to be honest) and has lots to text later on just in Chinese - once you start to remember the characters from the text you will find you can read these basic passages in Chinese no problem. Other books rely too heavily on pinyin which will hold you back if you actually want to progress. Book 2 has no pinyin with the text so it's essential (and fun) to get a grasp of the characters early on.I would highly recommend using something like Skritter along side this book as you will see your reading dramatically increase. The whole NPCR series is on there without you having to input every any characters. I am about to start NPCR book 3 and have already read graded reader books in Chinese thanks to this method.
