Features: This series is specially selected from the works of award-winning authors of the 6th National Outstanding Children's Literature Award, which was newly awarded in 2004. The National Outstanding Children's Literature Award, held every three years by the Chinese Writers' Association, is selected by experts composed of critics, writers, and senior editors from hundreds of children's literature works recommended from various places through several rounds of screening. We have every reason to believe in its authority and fairness. The words written by these authors, who have been carefully reviewed by authoritative and discerning readers, are far more reliable and credible than the works of those authors who have gained fame through deliberate hype. From the fourteen award-winning authors, we have selected over a hundred excellent pieces to compile into two novels and one fairy tale. Some of these authors are well-known to our readers, such as Jin Bo, Cao Wenxuan, Chang Xinggang, Shen Shixi, Bai Bing, Bing Bo, and Jin Zenghao. There are also young, highly-talented writers, such as Liu Dong, Wanglichun, Ssan, Wang Yimei, Xiong Lei, and Zhao Haihong. They form a brilliant landscape in contemporary Chinese children's literature creation. Starting with the works of the highest-level children's literature award-winning authors in China, this selection also reflects our attitude: serious writing, beautiful imagery, unambiguous aesthetic principles, and a commitment to the sublime stance of purity. We believe that this book brings to readers excellent chapters that can be called classics of children's literature, allowing readers to enjoy the joy of reading while also benefiting their writing.
