Chinese teachers can teach the children how to read & write from their text books, but that's as far as they can go. So when you Tour with Jeanie could you please pack into your luggage basic children's reading books to give to the village school for their library?

The only written English these village children ever see is their text books. This way an English book library can be established for the children at minimal cost to you. Suggested books would be a page with ½ writing and ½ coloured pictures. Colourful children's books about your country would also be an asset to them as they lack general knowledge of the world.
