Wait, Hoho, Wait! (Ni Hao, Kai-lan Ready-to-Read)

My daughter loves it. I Was hoping for at least some inclusion of mandarin. There is none. Not even "zai jian" at the end of the book. Meh..

This is a good book.My kid loves it.

Our Granddaughter loves for us to read to her, so Kai Lan is a positive read for her and she loves it.

This is a cute book that shows what can happen when you don't wait and what happens when you do.

This book is great since my son watches the show. It has pictures, so he feels like he can read and it's simple that he remembers every part of it and teaches you that you have to be patient and wait.

Hi. I'm kai lan. We are going to ride the car. But the sun is sleeping. We need to wake him up. We got to tickle him. Tickle with me. Tickle tickle tickle, tickle tickle tickle, tickle tickle tickle. Look the sun wake up. Hey ye ye. Are the dumplings are done? No. There are still be ready soon. Hey look . There's rintoo, tolee, and hoho. Rintoo, tolee, and hoho. Today, we are riding a car. Yes! I love riding a car. Sun sun has got the inctuortions. Sun sun. We are going to riding a car. Sure do. Ants, get to work with the inctuortions. Let's look with the inctuortions. Hmmm. The inctuortions are not going to be good for now. Is the car ready yet? Is it? Is it? Not yet hoho. Aw. Do you think hoho is not good at waiting? Yeah. I think so too? Here's the first piece. It's in chinese. It's a number one. Ei. And here's the second piece, number two. Er. Number three. San. Hmmm. Now we need to find the next piece. It has the number four. Si. Where's a piece that has this number on it? Ding! Yeah, your right. Si, it's right there. Is it ready yet? Not yet hoho. Now we need the number five. Wu. Where's a piece that has this number on it? Ding! Yeah, your right. Your a super helper. Wu. I'll help you, ladybug. Let's check the inctuortions. Ei, er, san, si, wu. Now the pieces are six, seven, eight, nine, and ten bill, chee, bol, choe, and chi. Where are the the pieces are these numbers? Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding! Yeah, your right. You find the five chinese numbers. Bill, chee, bol, choe, and chi. We have now five more. Bill, chee, bol, choe, and chi.

I like that the story has a good lesson for kids to learn besides reading for pleasure. First time my 3 year old saw the show on Noggin. And when we were at the Festival of Books this weekend, he immediately, picked out this book. Since then the past 3 days, all I did was read Kai Lan for both naps and bed time. I am sick of it; but, he's not. He gets to pick any books for nap time and this is the only one he wants over and over again.

I have 2 daughters: 4 and 1. Both of them love this book so much. Even small one brings this book and say "wait, hoho" to ask me to read it. Easy to read, fun and most of all, educational. Hoho learns how to wait by doing his favorites. It was the best choice.
