There are many ways to read, and I chose this intuitive and childlike way: I not only read it, but also made a picture book video with appropriate sound effects, which is comparable to a wonderful suspense blockbuster-in an abandoned old house full of absurdity, a little mouse, a little black cat and a little black dog staged the drama of "mantis catching cicada, yellowbird behind", just like one.
Author Peng Yi commented on this book in "World Picture Book: Reading and Classics": This is a unique book, which will cheer children and amaze adults.
What is the difference? I think it lies in three points:
First, its picture is very beautiful and fresh, and it is very realistic and delicate in the details of the scene. Painters use realistic painting methods to describe short stories full of childlike interest into decadent but wonderful scenes, which are reflected in:
1, scene description. Rusty courtyard, rickety gate, dark and desolate porch, messy and dirty kitchen, unattainable steps, broken but warm bedroom, etc., one shot after another, like a movie, shows readers the clear transition of space transfer. As the lens goes on, spider webs, screens dancing with the wind, fallen leaves everywhere … every scene.
2. Description of the protagonist of the story. You can fully appreciate how fine the painter's brush strokes are from the clearly visible beards of this little mouse and cat. But that is not the point. His focus is on the comparative description of movement and stillness-stillness is the scene in the house, while dynamics is the quiet chase between mice, cats and dogs. Both of them complement each other with stillness, and complement each other with stillness, which constitutes an amazing vividness and joy on the screen.
Second, its words are full of rhythm and poetry:
No one opens the courtyard door, and the wind sighs lightly.
No one picks the door wind and screams, and it' s hard to see;
No one walked through the porch, the wind was singing in a low voice, and the shadows were sneaking around;
The kitchen where no one cooks wails with the wind, and the shadows are furtive;
No one climbs the stairs, the wind is roaring, and the shadows are sneaking around;
Blowing in the wind, an empty room, shadows are still lurking, but this time it's not just cats. ...
Look, how beautiful and rhythmic this word is! It is catchy to read. Through the change of position and the wording when describing the wind, it shows that a chase is slowly heating up, making people's nerves tense up, and their emotions can't help but follow it, reminding the little mouse in fear: "Mouse, be careful, there is a cat behind you!"
Third, the hidden characters in the book. When I first read it, to be honest, I really didn't find any other hidden characters except mice, cats and dogs, but when I made this book into a picture book video, I found that this hidden tycoon had been slowly emerging with the unfolding of the picture. It's our owl!
"Watch out, mouse" and "Watch out, cat!" Who do you think keeps reminding them of such words? See here, you should have guessed! The owl actually appears on the first page of the picture book, but our eyes are easily attracted by the dynamic scenes of cats catching mice and dogs chasing cats, so if we don't read it carefully, we may miss many unexpected surprises!
Why do you strongly recommend this book? Because it can make you keenly discover-look for a pair of golden eyes, or a "mouse, be careful", or a childlike interest in a corner of the picture. ...
