Features: This book has long been beloved by children and young people around the world. In China, Don Quixote has almost become a household name, and this is because Don Quixote contains many thrilling and heart-stirring knightly adventures that deeply attract the children who love life. Don Quixote tells the story of a middle-aged gentleman who, due to his excessive obsession with knightly novels, eventually becomes mad and insists on dressing as a knight to begin his life as a knight-errant. In his mind, he imagines the inns he stays in as castles, the windmills on the milltop as the huge arms of giants, and the wine bags stored in the inns as the heads of giants. The sights, sounds, thoughts, and actions he encounters along the way are utterly absurd. Reading it will leave you laughing out loud. Children, perhaps sometimes your little brains have also been like Don Quixote's, because you have worshipped or loved certain characters and taken yourself to be them, imitating them and having many bizarre ideas. It's okay, innocent children are angels who live in imagination and dreams, and in children's eyes, the world should be strange, colorful, and fresh. So, let's embark on Don Quixote's journey of fantasy together!
