Features: This series of books is divided into four main parts—fable stories, fairy tales, myth stories, and science stories—based on the reading interests of primary school students. According to their reading abilities, the content is further divided into five levels: lower grades (first and second grades), third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade, and sixth grade. The reading materials progress from simple to complex, from easy to difficult, covering everything from ancient to modern and from China to the world. This is designed to broaden students' reading scope, enrich their extracurricular knowledge, and cultivate their interest in reading and aesthetic abilities.
1. Fables are a popular literary form enjoyed by people. In their brief length, they hide interesting plots and contain profound truths. They are the epitome and crystallization of human wisdom. In writing, fables primarily use exaggeration, often highlighting a particular trait of a certain group of people in a vivid and exaggerated manner, making the theme of the fable more prominent. Under the strong stimulation of their profound impact, they give people deep inspiration and thought.
2. Fairy tales are fantastical stories woven from artistic concepts that align with children's imagination. Excellent fairy tales feature bold fantasies, strong exaggeration, vivid plots, and healthy, enriching, and diverse content, filled with romanticism. They have always been favored by young children and serve as excellent teaching materials for teachers and parents to impart moral education and aesthetic education to children.
3. Myths originally reflected the ancient people's primitive understanding of the origins of the world, natural phenomena, and social phenomena, and were expressed through supernatural figures and fantastical forms. In myths, the divine world is often a mirror of the human world, with the relationships between gods, demons, and immortals in the illusory heavens merely a projection of human social relationships in the real world.
4. Science stories can be categorized into science essays, scientific fairy tales, scientific stories, and science fiction novels. Science essays or science articles are scientific knowledge readers written in prose form. Scientific fairy tales, also known as knowledge fairy tales, convey scientific knowledge to children in the form of fairy tales. Scientific stories teach various scientific knowledge through short stories. Science fiction novels describe how humans will struggle against nature in the future, serving as a literary style that looks ahead to the future of science. They depict some technological achievements that may become reality in the future as if they have already been realized.
