"This little red book was invaluable for me on my very first trip to China – when I didn’t speak a word of Chinese and backpacked to small towns where nobody speaks English. Its Pinyin pronunciation system actually allowed me to talk to baffled Chinese and find my way around China!" - Joachim, former global traveler.
