Read the picture book "Tao Tao and Noisy" and appreciate the writing style of the master who can draw best (continued)

In the last article, we have enjoyed the works written by American writer Wanda? The gist of Geiger's picture book Tao Tao and Noisy.

The story written by this award-winning master has been highly praised by experts. The story is continuous in plot, repetitive in rhythm, and has a tone of connecting the past with the future.

This paper still takes the picture book Tao Tao and the Noisy as an example, and we continue to appreciate the last two charms of this story.

First, the phonology of language.

Simply put, phonology of speech refers to the rhythm law brought by the pronunciation of words, or it is called rhythm or sense of rhythm. Especially in music, some tunes are lively and vivid, and some are coherent and dim and difficult to distinguish. In poetry, it refers to the flat and even meter.

In the fairy tale Tao Tao and the Noisy, firstly, the language is short and popular, and secondly, the catchy phonetic rhythm. There are many repeated words in it. This repetition does not bring a long feeling, but a special phonology that plays an emphasis role.

If you don't believe me, please read the following paragraphs aloud and pay attention to the last few repeated words of each sentence:

Is this a story that makes children more suitable for reading?

This sentence is actually a so-called "total score" structure, that is, the narrative technique of summarizing first and then decomposing in detail.

Please note that this passage appears three times in the story (when two voles start to push the wool ball, when the thread breaks, and when they report to their mother when they get home). The repetition of this passage, the repetition of paragraphs, and even the repetition of the plot all emphasize its significance to young readers and reduce the cost of reading comprehension.

More importantly, it is easy to read, and it is easy to remember stories.

Second, the tone of the transition.

Transition is often a structural framework of writing, including narration, discussion, narration of literary works and modern poetry. Specifically,

From: stands for the cause of the event;

Bearing: represents the course of the event, including the development and climax of the event;

Turning point: representing the reversal of events, the unexpected part;

The end or conclusion of an event.

In fact, the same is true of Tao Tao and noisy writing structure.

The story is caused by dad reading the newspaper and letting two voles know that the cheese in the cupboard is their favorite, paving the way for the following.

Then the wool ball accidentally rolled out of the nest, and when it was naughty and noisy, it was pushed to find the expected delicious cheese. The wool ball was robbed and the thread was broken, so it followed the wool ball and continued to walk. This is the development and climax of the story.

Then the event is reversed. They found strange "plants" and their favorite cheese in the room, but the equipment under the cheese was very dangerous, which was the most surprising plot.

At this critical moment, my father arrived, saved two little voles and had a happy ending.

Not only is the plot division of the whole story like this, but if you read the text carefully, you will really find that the text also contains this kind of beauty.

Third, exquisite drawings.

It must be said that among the famous children's literature masters, there are many outstanding writers. But being alone is both a writer and a painter, and such amphibious writers are rare.

Many master story books are drawn by others, and more are line drawings. They are better than Wanda. Geiger's vividness, delicacy, vividness and exquisiteness, as well as his profound understanding of the plot of the text, are still inferior.

Therefore, the author is not only a master storyteller, but also a rare outstanding painter. Therefore, reading her picture books is also an artistic enjoyment, which adds a lot of color to the story.

No wonder her illustrations are deeply loved by children and won many awards.

Read Wanda anyway? Master Geiger's works can not only be pleasing to the eye, but also be inspired by education.

Then let's hold up her works together and feel the flow that brings us constantly, so as to fall in love with reading and become a writer by deliberately practicing writing.
