Chinese translations of several of my Reader's Theater Editions have been
added to my Web site at http://www.aaronshep.com/. In a bilingual setting, you
can now perform the same script in both English and Chinese!

From my home page, click on Aaron's RT Page, then on Reader's Theater
Editions. You'll need special software or settings to view the scripts, which
are in traditional Chinese characters (BIG5 code). As always, the scripts can
be freely copied and performed for any educational, noncommercial purpose.

The five translations already posted are:

RTE#3 -- Savitri: A Tale of Ancient India
RTE#9 -- The Baker's Dozen: A Saint Nicholas Tale
RTE#11 -- The Calabash Kids: A Tale of Tanzania
RTE#12 -- The Hidden One: A Native American Legend
RTE#19 -- How Frog Went to Heaven: A Tale of Angola

More will be added, so check back or subscribe to my email bulletin, "Aaron's
Update." Coming soon:

RTE#18 -- The Crystal Heart: A Vietnamese Legend

The translations are courtesy of Chia Chin Tsoo of Taiwan
(c00cct00@nchc.gov.tw). They are being posted also on Chia Chin's own page,
Dino's Classroom, at http://www2.nchc.gov.tw/~c00cct00/elementary/, and on a
new Web portal for Taiwanese kids at http://kids.yam.com.tw.
