I am looking for soft copies of any graded or beginners Chinese readers.
Does anyone know of/have any?
I am not in China at the moment and am having trouble sourcing them.

Look for Chinese Breeze Graded Reader Series. I use em and they are ok. Each comes with a CD of MP3 recordings.
In China they are 15-16 RMB. Amazon.com (USA) has the books and CD for $14.95. Kindle version is $3.96 but there doesn't seem to be any MP3 files (also mine disappeared from my Kindle for PC which is annoying). I would not recommend the Kindle version.
Thanks geezer.
I am also looking.
I found some at Mandarin Books and at the Tinghua bookstore next to Yunnan Normal U., 3rd floor
@Geezer.
The info for Amazon is really helpful thanks.
Unfortunately I will be out of China for another 6 months, and so I am looking for things I can order on-line, or soft copies.
Thank you again

when you finish the study,you will be a native Chinese speaker
Also found these on Amazon.com (I use amazon.com, amazon.cn and amazon.co.uk - prices differ with amazon.cn having free delivery and is COD!)
Graded Chinese Reader 1, 2 and 3 (with 1 MP3 CD with each book) at $29.95 each. Cost with cheapest shipping for all three books frpm the US is $120.
But the publisher: Sinolingua Press; Bilingual edition so buying in China must be a lot cheaper. My guess is less than 100RMB each book. Author is Shi Ji:
ISBN-10: 7802003741
ISBN-13: 978-7802003743
Will get a Chinese friend to see how much discount on line here.
My tutor went to a Chinese bookseller web site and bought Graded Chinese Reader 1, 2 and 3 for me. Less than 80 RMB for all three. Works out to about $4.30 USD per book.
A lot cheaper than $29.95 on Amazon.com.
Where can I buy these graded readers in Kunming?
I can almost read books but I still find it a bit hard and therefore boring.
I have read enough textbook stories about student live and visiting the sights of Beijing. I am quite interested in getting some different input during summer vacation.
