Features: The author Egna is a contemporary fairy tale writer from Norway, renowned worldwide, and his works have been translated into over forty languages. This book is his masterpiece. The town of Bean Blossom is a fairy-tale world where people are kind, compassionate, and always ready to help, living happily and fulfilling lives. The only drawback is that there are three robbers in the town—lazy, undisciplined, unhygienic, and deceitful, earning their living by stealing. However, after they are arrested and detained, the townspeople treat them as family and friends, moving them to tears. Once, when the tower of the town caught fire, they climbed the tower to put out the flames and earned praise. Later, the townspeople were assigned jobs based on their individual strengths, allowing them to live honest lives. From then on, life in Bean Blossom became even more peaceful. The story is vivid and engaging, full of imagination, and brimming with love for life and the people around. It inspires readers to be noble and to find ways to help those who have flaws and make mistakes. Of course, we must recognize that in a capitalist society, the author's idealistic wishes are inevitably tinged with a strong element of fantasy.
