Features: Calligraphy is a national treasure of China and has numerous enthusiasts. With the improvement of people's material and cultural lives, the number of people learning calligraphy has been increasing by millions each year, gradually becoming a trend among children and young adults. More and more elderly people are also joining the ranks of calligraphy learners. Learning calligraphy can enhance one's cultural refinement and aesthetic taste, as well as provide physical exercise. Therefore, calligraphy has become a new symbol of people's pursuit of a high-quality life. As everyone knows, it is best to start learning calligraphy from a young age. Developing an interest in calligraphy at an early age can influence a calligraphy enthusiast's entire life. Therefore, we have compiled this series of "Children's Calligraphy Stele and Inscription Teaching" books, hoping to provide primary school students with a more standardized introduction to calligraphy. This series is arranged in several parts, including holding the brush, using the brush, structure, composition, copying exercises, creative knowledge, and appreciation of original works. For beginners, it is a step-by-step process. Considering that some young readers may have difficulty with traditional characters, we have marked the corresponding simplified characters below the traditional and variant characters to facilitate beginners. The regular script selected for this series is represented by Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, Ou Yangxun, and Zhao Mengfu. Their regular script calligraphy has become the preferred choice for later generations of students and calligraphy enthusiasts to study and copy. The clerical script is selected from the "Zhang Qian Stele" and the "Cao Quan Stele," each representing the two styles of robust and solemn versus elegant and flowing. They are typical models for learning clerical script. For running script, we have chosen the works of Wang Xizhi, the Sage of Calligraphy, and Mi Fu, known as the "Sage of Song Dynasty Running Script." Readers can admire the immortal monuments of history from these classic steles and inscriptions.
