Very easy to read and interesting enough to finish.

I have read some grader readers before but I couldn't finish them due to the use of very technical vocabulary (for what is supposed to be starter book) or were not interesting enough.
I found that "My beloved umbrella" is the first grader reader in which I had no trouble finishing due to its simplicity which I assume is your hard working to stick with HSK 2 vocabulary (which I'm now learning) and grammar. The relationship with 林月安 and 婷婷 was very wholesome and I was very happy to know both of them got their happy ending. I hope you continue with HSK3 books vocabulary because I want something a bit more challenging according to my current level but another HSK2 book I would also read because this is at a level that I feel comfortable reading. To be honest I didn't listen to the audiobook because I'm more of a visual person and the audio was a bit too slowed down and paused for my taste but maybe this is how it suppose to be. Either way, keep up with the good work and I hope you can announce if there are more books on the way or are currently in the works.
Thanks for a good story and wonderful grader reader.
