"If the Fox and the Rabbit Say Goodnight to Each Other", I was attracted by the name and opened this book. There is a big fox in the big book page composed of the front and back covers, and in front of it is a leisurely rabbit, not timid. They actually said good night to each other? Incredible.
I continued to read, and it told a story like this:
A little hare was stared at by a fox. Just when the fox had sharp teeth, the rabbit said, stop, don't eat me. Don't you know that this is the place where the fox and the rabbit say good night to each other? So the fox reluctantly said good night. The rabbit said again, stop, don't eat me. Don't you know that you have to tell a bedtime story after saying good night? The fox reluctantly made up a story again. The rabbit said again, "Don't you know you have to send me to bed after you tell me the bedtime story?" So the fox sent it home. There is no one at home, and the rabbit is about to become the prey of the fox. The rabbit said, stop, don't eat me, don't you know you have to sing me a lullaby ? So, the fox sang a lullaby and even hypnotized himself into falling asleep. The rabbit's parents came back, looking at the sleeping fox in amazement, and picked up the rolling pin to smash it down. The rabbit stopped and said, "Did you know that this is the place where the fox and the rabbit say good night to each other?" So the three of them dragged the fox out of the house, said good night in its ears, and then returned to lock the door and go to sleep.
In "If the Fox and the Rabbit Say Goodnight to Each Other", the large double pages make the story more graphic, and the painting style is real and warm. The fox with its big mouth looks so fierce at the beginning. Later, after two rounds, the fox was "pinched" by the rabbit. The rabbit now sat on the fox's belly and back without restraint. There is a lot more tenderness in the eyes.
My first feeling after reading it was, oh my, isn’t that little rabbit the baby’s bedtime program at home? Say goodnight, tell stories, sing lullabies. What a child would bring into a storyline like this is that he is that little bunny. Such a picture book can even be used for role-playing at home, with parents acting as foxes and children acting as rabbits. A fun and interesting parent-child game is created to connect parent-child relationships.
What a warm and healing story. An indescribable relationship developed between the fox and the rabbit. It used its kindness and true feelings to protect itself and others, with a happy ending.
htmlChildren before the age of 17, their world is a world of truth, goodness and beauty. Stories are children’s spiritual food. The goodness and beauty brought by stories will become the foundation of children’s spirit. If you want to judge whether a story is suitable for kindergarten children, the core is to see whether the ending of the story is beautiful and satisfactory. Just like "the prince and the princess live happily together", it brings a sense of security and order to the child, just like the sun rises from the east every day and the mother is always around. The ending of the story is too cruel, brutal, and regrettable and is not suitable for young children.
Secondly, when choosing stories for young children, we need to look at the beauty of the picture. The younger the children, the more we need to provide them with a feast of beauty. Are the colors in the picture soft and the proportions of the characters realistic? Pictures that are too cartoony or too linear are not suitable for young children.
This picture book is a rare treasure picture book in terms of storyline and color composition. I hope your children will be lucky enough to meet it.
