China Student Growth Reader centers on the growth of adolescents, providing high-quality reading materials to enhance their literary appreciation and writing skills, cultivate their humanistic and scientific spirits, develop their thinking and creative abilities, and promote the growth of their minds and the perfection of their personalities. China Student Growth Reader is divided into two parts: the junior high school edition and the senior high school edition. Schools and parents can arrange students to use them in coordination with different semesters, or students can freely purchase and choose to read based on their interests. A reading experience close to the heart, a unique journey of growth.
The path of growth is not smooth. Along the way, we will encounter completely different scenery—there will be sunshine and also (wind and rain), flowers and also (withered grass); forests and also deserts, smooth roads and also rugged mountain paths.
For today's adolescents, what should they read? How should they read? According to more traditional views, in addition to textbooks, adolescents should primarily read Chinese and foreign literary classics. Indeed, reading literary classics is very necessary, but for the comprehensive growth of adolescents, simply reading literary classics is not enough. Based on the opinions of many education experts, we offer three important suggestions for adolescents' reading here: First, adolescents should read widely. Second, adolescents should read the best classic works. Third, adolescents should develop the habit of reading regularly.
It is with this philosophy and this sense of responsibility that we have compiled and published the New Growth Reading Treasury, a series including over 20 series and hundreds of book varieties such as China Student Classic Reader, China Student Beautiful Prose Reader, China Student Growth Reader, and China Student Growth Stories. The New Growth Reading Treasury adheres to the concepts of growth education and quality education, dedicated to providing high-quality reading products for Chinese adolescents and helping them achieve comprehensive and healthy growth! New Growth—true quality education! May our young friends read more good books!
