Features: Based on my experience reading Ye Jun's fairy tales, his works leave readers with unforgettable and beautiful impressions. I believe there are at least five distinctive features in his creations:
— Fresh Material: In terms of material, Ye Jun insists on the concept of "freshness," striving to explore new themes and avoiding clichés. Even subjects that others have written about can appear in his works with a new perspective for young readers.
— Ingenious Conception: Ye Jun places great importance on the conception of fairy tales, considering it the essence of artistic life. His fairy tales are rooted in life but are not confined to it. With the help of his creativity and refined artistic skills, he often innovates, constructing a captivating fairy tale world.
— Wonderful Fantasy: Ye Jun's fairy tales excel in their fantastical elements.
— Rich Interest: Ye Jun's fairy tales are close to children's lives, deeply understanding their psychology, and filled with humor. The works collected in Ye Jun's fairy tale series are rich in childlike charm, with some bringing gentle smiles and others causing hearty laughter.
— Beautiful Language: The language in Ye Jun's fairy tales is smooth and elegant, another key feature. It is not only concise, vivid, clear, and colloquial but also humorous, dynamic, and highly musical. Especially in the dialogues, the characters are innocent, playful, and individualized, exuding strong aesthetic appeal. In the "Good Kids Goodnight Stories" series, Ye Jun's new fairy tales are divided into two volumes based on the target audience. One volume is the "Early Childhood Edition"—comprising The Moon Bird and The Candy House, with shorter suitable for parents to read to their children, as well as for preschoolers and early elementary students to enjoy. The other volume is the "Children's Edition"—featuring The Green Magic Shoes and The Ice Lake Monster, with longer designed for elementary students to read. This series provides excellent evening reading material for parent-child bonding.
Parents are the best teachers. Encouraging children who love stories to develop a passion for reading and the habit of reading at an early age, under the influence of family love, will benefit them throughout their lives. Children's reading plays a vital role in every stage of their growth. Publishing such a carefully selected fairy tale series is indeed a commendable public welfare initiative.
