Beginning of spring is one of the 24 solar terms. Standing means beginning, and spring means warmth. After beginning of spring, the cold gradually disappeared, and the seven or nine rivers opened, and the eight or nine swallows came. Beginning of spring played the overture of spring, which indicated that the spring full of vitality and the revival of everything was coming to us.

I remember when I was a child, beginning of spring wanted to eat spring cakes. The thin and soft bread rolls all kinds of vegetables and takes a bite. The salty flavor is moderate and the taste is special. And spring cakes must be eaten from beginning to end, that is to say, there is a head and a tail to eat a good mouth color.

When I grew up and left home, my calendar only looked at the solar calendar. I seldom remembered when I was in beginning of spring, and there were no more spring cakes made by my mother. Until I became a mother, until one day I heard my child reciting a poem:

The spring rain shakes the spring and the valley days, and the summer is full of mountains and summers.

Autumn dew, autumn frost, little snow in winter and cold in winter.

It suddenly dawned on me that every generation shoulders the mission of cultural inheritance. When we take our children to revel in Halloween, make wishes at Christmas and eat turkeys at Thanksgiving, we should tell our children that besides the Spring Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Dragon Boat Festival, there are 24 solar terms that show the wisdom of China people.

It is proud that 24 solar terms, 20 16 1 1.30, have been included in the world intangible heritage. I searched all the major book websites and chose this picture book with rave reviews for my children: "This is the Twenty-four Solar Terms".

There are four books in this set, which are divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter. Each book contains six solar terms. Different from ordinary serious popular science books, this set of books takes a six-year-old girl named Fang Ya as the protagonist, describes what Fang Ya saw and heard when she went to her grandfather's house in rural Shandong, and describes astronomy, meteorology, phenology, farming, folk activities and so on related to solar terms from a child's perspective. The content is rich and colorful, integrating knowledge and interest.

For example, when autumn comes, Fang Ya will draw an autumn schedule to record the changes in the maturity of melons and fruits. As soon as she got up every day, she ran under the grape trellis to see if the green grapes were growing. Then run under the peach tree to see if the peach has turned red; Then run to the garden to see if there are any seeds in the sunflower.

In early autumn, like the girls in the village, Fang Ya set a table in the garden, picked fresh and ripe fruits and put them neatly on the table. Grandma also helped her pick a big sunflower and light a candle on the table, then she could look up at the stars and pray for wisdom and wonderful workmanship from the Weaver Girl in the sky. Here, the author not only introduces the characteristics of beginning of autumn, but also introduces what is called the autumn tiger, tells the story of the meeting between the cowherd and the weaver girl and the magpie bridge, and introduces the origin of Valentine's Day in China.

I can't help thinking that when I was a child, I would run under the cucumber frame in the yard every year on Tanabata and listen to the cry of the weaver girl in the sky. Because my mother not only told me the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, but also told me mysteriously that every year on Tanabata Day, I put my ear close to the vine leaves of the cucumber under the cucumber frame, and I can hear the whispering of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the sky, and I can also hear the crying of the Weaver Girl. But only children who don't lie can hear it.

I believe. Every time I listen with my ears open, I can't hear anything. I'm so anxious that I can't help worrying. I've never lied. I had to stick my ear to the cucumber vine and hold my breath. Then the autumn wind around me slowly mixed with the sound of slugs in the courtyard wall and the faint cry of the baby at the end of the village. I seem to really hear the crying of the weaver girl. From then on, I believe I am a good boy who doesn't lie.

Those naivety and simplicity that belonged to my childhood are full of sweetness now. Even in the days when there is no picture book, my mother still gives me enough sense of ceremony on every specific day.

My children grew up watching Disney movies and western picture books. They never had a chance to listen to the whispers of cowherd and weaver girl under the cucumber frame. They don't know the law of crops growing in spring and growing in summer, harvesting in autumn and storing in winter. They don't know what a wheat seedling looks like, and they don't know how many hands and processes it takes for a grain of rice to become a bowl of white rice on the dining table.

And such a set of books can just let them see the true colors of everything in the world, feel the wonder and beauty of nature, and make up for the shortcomings of living in the city far from the countryside and fields.

In order to interact with young readers, various practical activities are also designed in the book. For example, there are scientific experiments: measuring the shadow of the sun, raising silkworms, and watching Beidou know the solar terms and the development of cicadas; There are traditional skills: standing eggs, walking on stilts, making zongzi, weaving egg bags and making lotus lanterns; There are solar PK games: flying chess, grabbing watermelons, lianliankan, who gets the "golden snowflake".

In addition, in each solar term, the author also selected appropriate and appropriate ancient poems and proverbs for children. For example, rain in solar terms, Du Fu's, vernal equinox in solar terms, and He's "Singing Willow" were chosen.

In fact, this is not only a set of popular science picture books suitable for children, but also suitable for adults. It reminds us not to abandon the farming civilization adhered to by our ancestors for thousands of years, not to lose our awe and love for nature, and not to forget the poetry and romance created by our parents at every festival.
