Features: A series of practical classified idioms for primary school students. Duo Duo is a third-grade boy in primary school. He is eager to improve, though he doesn’t study as well as class monitor Yingying; he loves to play, though he isn’t as athletic as Zhunzhun; and he loves to stand up for justice, though he isn’t as agile as Hao Hao. Also, he has one big characteristic—he enjoys speaking in a literary manner. You see, he recently developed a fondness for idioms. He not only likes to understand their meanings but also flexibly applies them in daily life and studies. This series includes over 800 idioms, each accompanied by Duo Duo’s quotes, flip-the-book (introducing the origin and meaning of idioms, storytelling, and sharing little knowledge), "Idiom Friends" (synonyms), "Idiom Showdown" (antonyms), and "Special Tips" (explanations of special words and phrases). These features basically reflect the understanding and application of each idiom. By the way, the drawings are where Duo Duo is testing you—please consult reference materials to find other synonyms and antonyms. The more, the merrier! However, Duo Duo can’t resist pasting the answers at the back for you to enjoy DIY fun, but you’re not allowed to peek before searching! Also, there are fun idiom games at the end of the book. Welcome to join in!
