Features: The author has worked in children's literature creation, translated Indian literature, and written essays. He has published several collections, including "Letter to Young Readers," "Taoqi's Summer Vacation Diary," "Little Orange Lamp," and "One-Inch Giant," which are all widely acclaimed. His essays from the 1930s and 1940s feature less lyrical language and more narrative elements. He no longer writes about the narrow spaces of lakes, seas, mountains, and romantic relationships between children, women, and the like, but focuses on the grand mountains and rivers, as well as extraordinary men and women, with broader perspectives. There is no longer the self-indulgent sighing among the mountain scenery and pine shadows, but instead, a solid grounding in the earth and profound cultural depth.
