Unlike books introducing ancient legends or classic tales, Little Travelers sets out to break stereotypes by showcasing contemporary China. Following the footsteps of six narrators as local guides, your imagination trots through the streets of Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Xi'an and Harbin – to understand the lives of Chinese children in today's world.
For instance, in Beijing, pupils are taught to paint traditional Shayan kites, while in Harbin, the little protagonist's father, an ice sculptor, participates every year in the Harbin Ice and Snow World fair, a renowned winter tourism destination.
