Grandpa who brought his grandson to read books is a retired professor. He can't change the habit of turning over books every day when he should be enjoying his family. He just takes his grandson to the bookstore to punch in every day. Unexpectedly, his playful little grandson fell in love with a "fantastic book" and saw a "Shan Hai Jing" in his hand.
Shan Hai Jing is an ancient book of China. It is difficult to verify the exact date of this book. It is said that the original classic of mountains and seas is a painting, and the story is passed down from mouth to mouth. Later, after years of supplementary explanation, the "Mountain and Sea Map Classic" was finally produced. The version that has been circulated so far is divided into five volumes, namely Shan Hai Jing.
There are many anecdotes and various myths and legends recorded in Shan Hai Jing. Because the description in the book is so bizarre, people once regarded it as an ancient wonderful book. However, through the continuous textual research of historians, it is found that Shan Hai Jing may be a natural history, and the contents recorded in it are much more complicated than we thought. Therefore, this book still has a lot of historical value worthy of further study and discovery.
Anyway, why did the old professor bring his grandson to see Shan Hai Jing? Can such a small child understand? After talking to the children with this question, I found that our understanding was too one-sided. Although the children in front of them are young, they have mastered Pinyin, known more than 3,000 Chinese characters and been able to read most books independently.
When chatting with children, I found that his language expression ability is very good. He gave a vivid account of the short stories he had read. For example, he talked about Nezha, which children like to watch. It turns out that the earliest image of Nezha is an exotic animal in the mountain scenery and mountain classics. The image of this strange animal is that it looks like a chicken, with three heads, six eyes, six feet and three wings.
In addition, he also introduced the four patrons of Kunlun Mountain recorded in Shan Hai Jing: Wukong and Queen Mother Ying Zhao. And his favorite is Roh Moo-hyun. The tiger image of Kyubi no Youko with a face is very powerful. It is said that there has been an image similar to Roh Moo-hyun in South America. Maybe there are really beasts in life?
More importantly, he can easily read the stories of Phoenix, Bifang Bird, Sunbird and Nine-headed Bird in The Classic of Mountains and Seas, and listen to the children telling the story of Kan Kan in the book, which is accompanied by his own imagination. I have to say I admire them. Children of this age can enjoy it, and parents' education and guidance are also in place.
And these have to talk about the professor's educational methods. The old professor thinks it is very important to cultivate children's good study habits. Childhood is a critical period for the formation of many habits. Exposing children to some history books can increase their knowledge. Moreover, these history books are not only interesting, but children can also learn a lot of practical truth from the stories, among which Shan Hai Jing is the enlightenment book that the old professor read to his grandson.
From the beginning, I told the children the stories in the book, and then I guided them to read them themselves. Children's growth and changes gradually appear, literacy is fast and memory is clear. After reading a book, they will take the initiative to read more extracurricular books. Such a change surprised their parents.
Then why did the old professor choose Shan Hai Jing as his child's first book? The reason is actually simple:
The first reason is that Shan Hai Jing can arouse children's reading interest. There are many interesting myths and legends in Shan Hai Jing, which are both interesting and mysterious, and it is easy to arouse children's curiosity and desire to explore.
Moreover, in fact, the original source of many cartoon images that attract children's interest on TV and monster images of various fantasy dramas is Shanhaijing, such as the familiar images of nine-tailed fox, phoenix, dragon and unicorn.
Reading The Classic of Mountains and Seas can not only arouse children's interest in reading, but also the exaggerated, magical and even mutated beast image can expand children's imagination and make reading time colorful.
The second reason is that Shan Hai Jing is rich in content and covers a wide range. In addition to myths and legends, The Classic of Mountains and Seas has a wide range of contents and coverage, involving geography, myths, folk customs, history of science, religion, ethnology, medicine, botany and many other aspects, as well as sacrifices and rituals. Can be called a "natural history". If you can master multi-disciplinary knowledge by learning a book, Shan Hai Jing is a good choice.
Friends who want to buy Shan Hai Jing for their children are often worried that they will not understand it, because the original Shan Hai Jing is written in classical Chinese. So far, Shanhai Classic has been updated in many versions, but they don't know which one to buy. The book my child read is very good, which can be said to be the closest to the original intention!
