According to Zagreb local media, books about Chinese traditional culture, folk customs and language, as well as children's tales sold the best. A young Croatian told a journalist that he wanted to buy Chinese nursery books for his eight-month old daughter.

"I hope she can get in touch with the beautiful but difficult Chinese language as early as possible, maybe she can work as a Chinese translator when she grows up," he said.
