Hello CP!

I'm looking for some advice or a recommendation on a traditional Chinese cooking book for a christmas present. I tried to go to Coles and Chapters but was only directed to books on how to make Ginger Beef and other generic western chinese dishes. I'm looking for a far more traditional book with a number of soups and dim sum recipes.

Any advise?

As a bonus, I'm also looking for a children's chinese writing or calligraphy style book for my little nieces. I bought them a full writing set when I was in China a few weeks ago but I'd like to get them a book as well to learn how to write some of the chinese characters and provide them with some of their meanings. Everything I've been able to find so far has been a bit too advanced for a 10 year old.

Thanks in advance!
