Inspire children to fall in love with the world they live in with Tiny Travelers!
"A+ educational content….Wonderful... to share with young kids -- to broaden their horizons and discover new places of interest!” ― Common Sense Media
The Tiny Travelers “Treasure Quest” Series takes its readers on a fun-filled journey to discover what makes each country special with search-and-find features on every spread.
In Tiny Travelers China Treasure Quest, readers journey from the Forbidden City to the Wuling mountains. From the cosmopolitan city of Shanghai, to the ancient Great Wall of China, Tiny Travelers will enjoy getting closer to Chinese culture while learning about what makes this country so captivating.
Each illustrated spread invites children to discover hidden "treasures" - icons, animals, statues, instruments and more - that make up the rich cultural heritage of China.
“Most kids today are told that it’s a small world, when in fact it’s a really big world,” says Encantos CEO and Tiny Travelers creator and author Steven Wolfe Pereira. “And because the world is so big, there are many countries, cities, and cultures that have yet to be discovered and explored by kids. We created Tiny Travelers to foster curiosity, empathy, and understanding by learning what makes people and places so special.”

This installment of the series is chock full of super happy pictures of kids and families enjoying themselves while eating, traveling, and celebrating holidays. My favorite picture is the one of all of the pandas rolling and lounging, because who doesn't love pandas?
The story is told through rhyming verse which usually works well in this installment. Bolded vocabulary words have their Chinese character equivalents next to them. If the word is in English, it also has the English transcription of the words in Chinese.
Each page has a little treasure hunt in a box in the corner. And fun facts are sprinkled throughout for the more advanced readers.
It's a cute introduction to China and the Chinese culture.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for supplying me with a requested review copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
