Hello, Tom ! I'm Lihua from Xinhua Middle School.I am glad to see your information about learning Chinese on the Internet . I would like to help you with your Chinese. I hear that you are looking for a proper Chinese book for yourself. By coincidence I have one that is suitable to you. This book is only for beginners and there are some pictures in it . I think you can learn Chinese by reading it . This Saturday afternoon I am free . If it is convenient for you, let's meet at the gate of our school at four that afternoon. I am looking forward to seeing you and I hope that I can help you.
Yours.
Lihua.
