“It’s fake when animals speak human language, right?” “There’s no Thumbelina, right?” “Are monsters a liar?” How do you answer your children’s questions? ? Although what the child said is good, if the answer is that animals don't talk and there are no thumbnails, it will conflict with what we have told our children in picture books so far, as if we as parents have been lying. But if you answer that there is a thumbnail, but the thumbnail does not actually exist, you are also lying. Ah, how should I answer this? It’s so difficult! Why do children ask such annoying questions? It is really difficult to deal with children when they are older... When adults are worried about these problems, children have long been aware of adults' confusion and ask questions more enthusiastically. Children at this time are very unfriendly. For children. I am under the supervision of adults all day long, so I am not happy to see adults in trouble. These children, what kind of angels are they? Yes, I have personal experience. When children are three or four years old, when reading picture books, they never mention the above-mentioned issues that embarrass adults. But at the age of five or six, Zhejiang gradually gained more life experience and could speak some truth, so he started to ask those questions. I was also asked this question when my child was five years old, "Actually, there is no Thumbelina." The child who had solemnly told me before that "I saw Thumbelina under the fence on the way back from kindergarten today" turned into a skeptic overnight, so I was not mentally prepared. While I was thinking that this day has finally come, I was weighing it in my mind, is there an answer? Or not? Now, I will answer firmly: "There are little people with thumbs." Whether it is to adults or children; to anyone, I will answer calmly: "There are little people with thumbs." Maybe some people will think that this is not a fool. ? Poor dreamy guy. But I am serious. Have you read Saint-Exupéry's "The Little Prince" and Norton's "The Thumbelina Under the Bed", Travers's "The Wind Came with Mary Poppins" and C.S. Lewis's "Adventures in the Kingdom of Narnia" and other books? Have you read Graham's "The Wind in the Willows", Milne's "Winnipeg", and Jansen's "The Happy Moomins"? The protagonists who appear in those works are either thumbnails, goblins, or small animals and toys. but. After reading these unrealistic stories, we felt happy and excited in our hearts, learned many things that made us think, and even became friends with the protagonists. In these works, we also feel a sense of reality that is not found in real life, and even if there is, it is very little. These works contain many truths that are very precious to us humans. Even people who know that Thumbelina does not exist. I will also be fascinated and moved by "The Little Prince". At that moment, in the reader's mind, the little prince is alive. At least, no matter how skeptical you look. The fact that many people in the world are deeply moved by "The Little Prince" shows that the Little Prince does exist. In the world of this work, the little king will always exist; in the hearts of people who have read this work, the little prince will always exist. As long as human culture continues to spread this work, the little prince will survive forever. "The Thumb Man". Even if the eyes cannot see. But as long as we have no grudges in our hearts, He can enter our hearts at any time. And in that world. Both animals and toys can talk. The world of picture books, the world of fairy tales, is such a world, a world where you can see things that cannot be seen with your eyes. Not everything can be seen by human eyes. Among the things we cannot see, there are various ties that connect people to each other.
