The Chinese version of Tweet of the Day is published by Yilin Press.

Yilin Press, a subsidiary of the country's publishing giant Phoenix Publishing and Media Group (PPMG), published the Chinese version of Tweet of the Day, a book about birds.

The book, by Brett Westwood and Stephen Moss, renowned nature science writers in the United Kingdom, introduces 247 species of birds in the country and is interspersed with folk tales and poetry, showcasing the important role played by birds in human cultures.

The book also encourages readers to pay more attention to the songs of the four seasons and rebuild a connection with nature.

Although the book focuses on birds in the UK, about 200 of the birds in the book can also be found in China.

The first bird in the book is cuckoo, which should be familiar to Chinese readers, and other birds in the book, such as barn swallow, sparrow, and egret, are also commonly seen in China.

Yilin Press's translated version also comes with audio-visual materials. Readers can learn about birds and listen to their chirps and songs by scanning the QR code printed at the beginning of each chapter.
