Features: Zhang Tianyi is a renowned modern novelist and children's literature writer in China. He began writing in 1922 and joined the "Chinese Left-Wing Writers League" in 1931. While engaging in adult literature, Zhang Tianyi consistently devoted himself to creating works for children. Throughout his long literary career, he wrote many outstanding fairy tales, novels, fables, and plays, most of which are characterized by a strong spirit of realism, with a talent for satire and humor. These works represent the second major creative climax in Chinese children's literature after the works of Ye Shengtao and Bing Xin. The fairy tales he created are particularly regarded as exemplary works of modern Chinese fairy tales. To allow a wider audience to read and appreciate Zhang Tianyi's children's literature, we have compiled and published the Complete Works of Zhang Tianyi in Children's Literature. The collection is divided into four volumes, gathering a total of 53 works, including novels, fairy tales, plays, and fables by the author.
