Features: This is an adult fairy tale of love and miracles. I've always believed that the preciousness of the petite class lies in their lingering dreams, and adult fairy tales are the perfect place to realize dreams and take flight with imagination. Moreover, a bilingual version of a classic masterpiece passed down through generations. "A girl named Judy, raised in an orphanage, is sent to university by a mysterious figure she once glimpsed on the wall, whose silhouette was stretched by car headlights. Her extraordinary journey begins without any psychological preparation. As Judy gradually realizes that her monthly letters will never receive a reply, she starts to have a touch of youthful complaint and disdain toward Uncle Long Legs. The rebellious seed that had been dormant in her during her time in the orphanage begins to stir again." Such a book that blends love, kindness, and various forms of true love is truly worth savoring, or you could simply put yourself in the protagonist's shoes and play a game of "let's pretend." As long as you have dreams, why not? —Recommended by Beijing Entertainment Express
