From one of the authors ofBasic Patterns of Chinese Grammar comesSpeak and Read Chinese, a simple, fun guide that helps language learners remember pinyin, tones, and characters of essential Chinese words. Students and teachers rate pinyin, tones, and characters as some of the most difficult aspects of learning Chinese. This book addresses this issue by organizing easy memorization tricks for the three hundred most basic characters in popular textbook series like Integrated Chinese and New Practical Chinese Reader. Larry Herzberg did his Master's and PhD work in Chinese Language and Literature at Indiana University. He founded Chinese-language programs at two colleges and has been teaching for thirty years.

I love memory devices, mnemonic devices. They are fun, make learning easier and helps me closer to where I want to be with Mandarin. Larry Herzberg has figured out ways to make this doable with this non Romance language. Since we don't have cognates which makes French easier to learn, he has created devices to help us. He picked out 300 commonly used Chinese words for this book. One thing that I really love is that he illustrates with an English sentence, focusing on one word to help us get the tone right. Tones are the most difficult for me. He gives both the traditional and the simplified character for each word.
OK, I am making my flashcards and mean to tackle the 300, however, I already know a good portion and that knowledge gives me more confidence.
I highly recommend this book as an aid to learning Mandarin, probably after you have already done one year of study like me.
