Synopsis

"Rhythm Enlightenment" is an enlightenment book that trains children to cope with and master the rhythm of sounds. It is organized according to rhyme, including virtual and real responses to astronomy, geography, flowers and trees, birds and beasts, people, utensils, etc. From single-character pairs to two-character pairs, three-character pairs, five-character pairs, seven-character pairs to eleven-character pairs, the sounds and rhymes are coordinated and catchy, and you can get training in pronunciation, vocabulary, and rhetoric. From single words to multi-word pairs, it reads like a song.

Reader comments

This book "Rhythm Enlightenment" is really good! It is a book suitable for those of us who are in love to read together. It not only allows us to feel the beauty of Chinese rhythm, but also increases our understanding of traditional culture. Just like Baoyu and Daiyu reciting poetic couplets together in "A Dream of Red Mansions", it is full of romance and interest. "The flowers are bright, the grass is velvety, nine summers are against three winters", what a beautiful description this sentence has! Reminds me of the spring, summer, autumn and winter we spent together. I think this book can be read in conjunction with "Li Weng Dui Yun", and you will gain more.
