Just to say, I did check the forum directory and couldn't find anything relevant. I'm looking for a book(s) that contain traditional characters, pinyin, and English. I found 1 such book online but it didn't seem too interesting. I'm not looking for a textbook, I'm looking for actual novels or short stories, etc. Something that could be 'fun' to learn with. For example, I had bought the "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" book that I saw a student of mine had. It was in traditional characters and English. However, I didn't stop to think that i couldnt actually pronounce the unknown words without looking them up. I spent a few days trying to read it and got only a few pages of progress, very slow and tedious.

So that being said, anybody know of any books I could order online that would fit all three attributes? Thanks!

@carolgreen986,

Books from Taiwan should be in traditional characters, but I'm not sure if it's easy to find those with pinyin. Let's see if other people have any advices.
