Creation of bookworm

Mummy bought another series of story books for Ethan. Cannot resist when found them in Shanghai as these books are what mummy has always wanted to buy in Malaysia.

Mummy likes the pictures in the books, the characters were very cute. The pictures are so colorful and the storyline is funny. All the books tell of our daily life like for example I want to brush teeth, I want to bath and etc. It's all 7 books per series. Well, not bilingual books as the original author is Yoko Sasaki. Of course Ethan loves these books.


Mummy thought that the books are already cheap (compared to Chinese books sold in Malaysia) but not the cheapest in China. After scanning through the internet and found out that if one buy online is more cheaper. So the conclusion is cannot buy book in the bookshop and shopping mall unless those that cannot be found online. In the bookshop, they are selling the book based on the price printed behind the book. Buying online we can get discounted price. So mummy has ordered another series of book which mummy found it in Malaysia's Border Bookstore but the price is MYR60 for 12 books. Here mummy only need to pay RMB36 for 12 books. Only around MYR1.50 per books as compare to MYR5 per book if buy in Malaysia. Since mummy cannot really trust the China online purchase, mummy only place an order of RMB36(RMB30 and above free shipping) and check whether the service is good or not. If the service is good then will place future orders. Of course we chose the payment method that specified cash payment upon goods delivery. Just to be on the safe side.
