Before he became the legendary author of The Art of War, Sun Tzu was a quiet boy named Sun Wu, with sharp eyes and deep questions. Born into a noble family in ancient Qi, he watched as truth-tellers were silenced and principled generals cast aside. Determined to change the fate of nations, he walked away from comfort and into the mountains, where he began crafting a philosophy that would shape history.Told in vivid, accessible language with side-by-side Chinese and English, this book brings Sun Tzu's journey to life—from his youth and exile to his rise as a military advisor who won battles not just with swords, but with wisdom. Ideal for readers young and old, it's both a gripping narrative and an unforgettable introduction to the man behind the world's most enduring book of strategy.The story is told using only 760 different Chinese words, most of which are in the HSK3 vocabulary. It includes pinyin, an English translation, and glossary of all words used. A free audiobook is available on YouTube, on the Imagin8 Press channel.

Before the Tang dynasty rose to power, China stood on the edge of collapse. The Sui rulers had reunited the country and built grand projects such as the vast Grand Canal linking north and south, but these achievements came at a heavy cost. Farmers were forced from their fields, taxes grew harsh, and families struggled to survive. Across the land, anger and hardship slowly turned into rebellion. Roads became unsafe, villages emptied, and the authority of the emperor began to weaken. As the old order crumbled, military leaders and local groups competed to shape what would come next. Among them was Li Yuan, a commander who watched and waited as the Sui lost control.This book traces the rise of the Tang dynasty and the remarkable world it created. You will see how Li Yuan and his son founded a new government, how powerful emperors such as Taizong strengthened the empire, and how Tang China became a center of trade, culture, and poetry. Along the way, you will meet famous figures, explore life in the capital of Chang'an, and discover why the Tang dynasty remains one of the most celebrated periods in Chinese history.This is the 3rd book in the Dynasties of Ancient China series of graded readers for English speakers learning to read Simplified Chinese. The book uses the 1200-word HSK-4 vocabulary, with additional words added as necessary. It also includes a pinyin version and a complete English translation, as well as a glossary that defines all Chinese words used. This makes it ideal for learners who want to improve their language skills while gaining a deeper understanding of Chinese history and culture.
