Features: The series called "New Concept Chinese" is presented to the young friends. What is "New Concept Chinese"? In a nutshell, the term "concept" refers to "idea," "thought," or "viewpoint." Put more simply, it means "opinion" or "perspective." The word "new," of course, is even easier to understand—it stands in contrast to "old," referring to things that did not exist in the past. "New Concept" means looking at things from a new perspective or viewpoint that was previously unknown. This book is the first volume of "New Concept Chinese." This volume selects and compiles works based on the everyday experiences and life perceptions of young friends. The author, rooted in the land of their hometown, feels the nourishment and vastness of the earth. Growing up on this land, the author uses their eyes to appreciate the scenery of the four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter, as well as the changing weather, the sun and moon, the stars, and the day and night. Thus, the author comes to understand the changes of nature and the wonder of creation. It is this realization that inspires the author to explore the mysteries of nature, "get closer to science," and receive education in science. At the same time, the author observes the small animals around them with curiosity. These animals are the and expression of the author's childhood life.
