The day before I went to Taitung, I suddenly received an email from Peggy, the assistant of Mr. Malai, saying that his third child was unwell and could not attend the next day (not good). Please contact Mr. Marley's wife directly. When the train arrived in Taitung, I received a short message from Mr. Malai's wife, saying that the baby was uncomfortable and a little noisy and could not meet in the restaurant (this is not good).
Fortunately, there are salted fish and small drops of water at dinner time; Fortunately, I did my homework before I went. I learned a lot of interesting things about salted fish and water droplets from the covers of Mr. Malai and the Malai picture book library. Popularizing the graceful salted fish and water drops of rice cone has really eliminated more than half of the embarrassment of meeting for the first time. However, good luck followed. When we arrived at Mr. Marley's house, Mr. Marley's wife and assistant Peggy were there, and the beautiful boy and baby welcomed us with great energy.
At the beginning of this article, the following are ten questions and ten answers with Mr. Male:
1. Excuse me, why does Mr. Male like to play the leading role in animals?
Teacher Malai likes animals very much. Using animals as the protagonist of the story feels very relaxed and unconstrained. Many exaggerated expressions or body movements on people's faces are applied to animals' faces and bodies, which will have good results. Even like "I became a fire-breathing dragon!" "The protagonist also gave up the stereotype of animals and made the story more powerful and unconstrained with absurd and funny monsters.
2. Teacher Malai talked about "I became a fire-breathing dragon! reprint
I became a fire-breathing dragon! Malai's first picture book was published in 1995 and won the Moody Award of the first Mandarin Daily. Ask Mr. Male why he painted it again when it was reprinted in 2004. If the teacher tells such a good story, he will draw better than his former self if he has the opportunity.
