Pinyin implementation

I just noticed that when enabled in the language learning options:

Books in chinese language (such as the Kindle User's Guide Chinese Edition in these screenshots) will (unsurprisingly) display pinyin above chinese characters:

The feature doesn't seem to be implemented in a way similar to wordwise. I couldn't find an equivalent of the mnt_us/system/kll/kll.en.en.klld wordwise data base with accompanying mnt_us/bookASIN.sdr/LanguageLayer.en.ASIN.kll in the sdr directory for the book.

By curiosity, has anybody researched how/where pinyin is implemented?
