He opened the cardboard box and inside was a cute puppy. The boy was a little surprised at first, but when he found out that the puppy actually had a broken leg, he seemed to be greatly humiliated and offended, so he threw the puppy aside in disgust.

[Reason for recommending the film]
When children are very young, they always lack a little courage and are full of fear of strange people and things around them. They clearly long for friends. We are happy together, but we dare not take the first step.
This film tells the story of a little crocodile who has just moved to the cat world. She is afraid because she is unfamiliar and has no friends. She is always silent because she does not dare to squeeze into the ice cream truck surrounded by kittens and cannot eat her favorite red bean ice cream. I stood in front of the ice cream shop and waited until all the kittens left. Then I went to buy ice cream, but by then all the ice cream was sold out. But I'm afraid I still have to wait there every day. Finally one afternoon, a "similar" friend appeared...
This is a very warm and healing empathy courage short film. The timid little crocodile in it is afraid that many children will find their own shadow. Children need to face many firsts, the first time to go to school, the first time to meet new friends, the first time to borrow things from others...

The story takes place in the home of a young man. He drew a smart but rebellious rabbit and a loyal but conceited dog. . From then on, catching rabbits became the spiritual ideal and physical nightmare of owners and dogs. After repeated defeats, they traveled through books to chase rabbits, got into the brain to fight monsters, joined forces with aliens, controlled giants to fight in gorgeous kung fu competitions, and interesting creative adventures began again and again!
The pig-like teammates and god-like opponents in the drama will make you laugh even if you don’t.

"Zhuangzi Said"
[Movie Information]
Director: Cai Zhizhong
Film length: 70 episodes in total/single episode 1-2 minutes
Douban score: 8.9
[Reason for recommendation]
This cartoon is adapted from Cai Zhizhong's comic book "Zhuangzi". This work uses animation to present Zhuangzi's thoughts more simply and understandably.
I want to understand traditional Chinese culture, I want to know Zhuangzi’s thoughts, and I want to inspire my children to understand life and heaven and earth early and wisely. Then such an animated short film is the first choice, and it is also called an "excellent enlightenment work" by the audience.
An excellent cartoon is not only exciting, interesting and full of imagination, it can also enrich children's emotional world and help them shape their correct outlook on life.
In addition, art knows no borders. I hope everyone can look at things from a developmental, open, and dialectical perspective, instead of criticizing "favoring foreigners" whenever they see foreign films, or criticizing "feudal dross" whenever they see traditional culture. . I hope every child can be exposed to truly excellent cartoons and have a happy and interesting summer vacation!
