Friends who like or are familiar with Miyanishi Tatsuya's picture books will know that Miyanishi's picture books have two major characteristics: one is the rough-line style of painting, and the other is the seemingly nonsensical but full of love.
In this love, there is the kindness of courtesy and sharing between strangers, and the love of gratitude that saves mankind and repays life-saving grace. . . .
Today’s story is also about love.
There are five wolves living in the forest, namely Bill, Bull, Bell, Paul, and Baal. They are good friends, love each other and support each other, and they always discuss everything together.
On this day, they gathered together to discuss what to eat at night. Barr said he wanted to eat fluffy omelette rice with a lot of eggs, and Bill said he wanted to eat a red apple, which is best eaten with the skin on. As for Bull, what he wanted to eat was a steaming rice bowl topped with big fried shrimps. Asking about it made people drool. Bell said he wanted to use the potatoes everyone dug up to make soft hash browns. Finally it was Paul's turn. What he wanted to eat was grilled and sizzling saury.
Everyone wants to eat different things, which means that they need to make five dinners separately and prepare their own ingredients to cook their own meals. This not only takes too long and is too slow, but also requires separate actions. In their view, the strength and wisdom of one person is always not as great as five people acting together.
So what should we do?
Barr thought of a way: eat pigs. This proposal was approved by the five wolves collectively, and they raised their front paws and shouted together: Yes.
Then they came to a place where pigs seemed to pass by and waited for the "pig".
After waiting for a long time, five little pigs finally came over. Tsk tsk, this is so lucky. Not only do we have delicious food today, but we can also eat one little pig each. Paul said happily.
Just do it, shouting one, two, three, everyone surrounded the piglets. The five piglets extended their claws and ran towards the piglets. He was so frightened that he fled in all directions. Miyanishi Tatsuya's rough-line painting style suddenly became a booster for this intense atmosphere, and the picture became messy and intense.
After some hard work, the piglets were finally caught one by one. Just when everyone was sighing that they could finally have a feast, Bill muttered: I really envy you...
What's wrong? It turns out that Bill's pig escaped and he had no pig to eat.
Seeing this scene, Boole said, I’ll give you my pig. I’m not very hungry.
But Bill clearly remembered that Bull said just now, "I can't bear it anymore, I want to eat now."
At this time, Bell pushed Bull away and said, that's right, you stay away. I don't like pork very much, give my pork to Bill. As soon as he finished speaking, Bill said, "Didn't you just say that piglets are still delicious? So Bill doesn't want Bell's piglets.
In this way, Boole, Bell, Barr, and Paul all want to eat piglets. He gave his piglet to Bill, but Bill felt that everyone wanted to eat the piglet, so he couldn't take other people's piglets to eat.
In order to make Bill accept his piglet, everyone talked about it. What did Bill want to eat first? It turned out to be just apples.
Thinking of this, Barr suddenly became excited and shouted: Compared with such a thin pig, of course apples are more delicious. Everyone likes to eat apples. Apples are the best. Now go pick the apples.
As soon as they finished speaking, the five wolves raised their front paws and shouted "Agree" together.
They put down the pig and ran to pick it. Apples.
The back cover of the picture book shows five wolves working together to carry a basket of red apples. I think that this time, no one will be able to eat dinner. < /p>
Is the story of five wolves being courteous and helping each other very similar to the story of Kong Rong giving pear in ancient China? Through Mr. Tatsuya’s picture book, we realize that the five wolves are friendly and humble because of their humility. Showing friendship, and because of friendship, they accompany each other and become good friends. Because of this, they can live safely and happily in a dangerous place like the forest, as they believe that the power of unity is the most powerful.
This also teaches children a simple way to make friends: be humble and unite with others. Only by uniting can we overcome difficulties. Mutual humility between people is a manifestation of friendship. The old loves the young, the young respects the old, and is kind to each other. Then, we will definitely make many friends.
