Picture book series 19: not square and not round

Did you eat zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival?

From the perspective of mice, this book leads children to explore the mystery and fun of this festival and convey the characteristics and charm of traditional festivals in a way that children are willing to accept.

The mice live in the mezzanine of the corridor. The corridor is next to Xiao Juan's kitchen, and there is always a delicious smell in the kitchen, which is different every day. Three little mice are always drooling.

That day, the fragrance came from Xiao Juan's kitchen, and even Father Mouse didn't know what it was. The smell was so strong and special that three little mice opened their nostrils like caves. Father mouse couldn't hold back and said, "I'll go and have a look!" " "

After a while, father mouse came back: "This is the thing!" " "It dragged back something that was neither round nor square.

Three little mice rushed up with their mother and smelled it: "Yes, that's its fragrance, it's delicious!" " "

What is this thing? It seems to be wrapped in leaves,

There are strings tied back and forth on the leaves.

Dabao mouse leaned his head on his head and said, "Probably a pillow." But lying on it is uncomfortable.

Bauer, the mouse, climbed up and said, "Maybe it's a fragrant sofa." But it's hard

Bao Xiao, the mouse, dragged it to the luggage cart and said, "It's probably fragrant luggage."

"Still Bao Xiao is smart!" Father mouse said, "If it's luggage, open it and see what's inside?"

Let's make this leaf together. It's really long, and wrap the round things layer by layer.

The smell is getting stronger and stronger, and every mouse's eyes are wide open

Ah! The contents are exposed:

It's rice!

Don't! It's rice!

This is rice.

Don't! It's made of rice!

Five mice formed a circle and began to eat.

"There is meat in it!"

"What delicious meat!"

Things that were not round and square were eaten up by five mice at once.

The next morning, three little mice shouted, I want to eat something that was neither round nor square yesterday. This time, father mouse and mother mouse went to look for it together.

Huh? The house in Xiao Juan is really beautiful today! There are strings of colorful things hanging on the bedside, cupboard door and window.

Mother mouse has a smile on her face. She really wants to take a bunch back to show her three babies.

Look, I sewed another thread and handed it to a little brother with a big yellow "Wang" written on his forehead and a big duck egg wrapped in a net bag on his chest.

"This is your sweet bursa, and bugs won't bite you." Say it in a shy way.

My brother took the sachet and hung it on his belt.

"Bugs? Afraid ... afraid of this sachet? " Mother mouse asked father mouse.

Father mouse said nothing, just watched and listened carefully. Finally, the mouse father forgot what the mouse wanted them to find. Instead, he picked up some rags to make sachets and hurried back with Mother Mouse.

"Do you know?" Father mouse is proud again. "Yesterday's taste was the taste of zongzi."

"Zongzi? You mean that round thing is zongzi! Dabao said, mouse.

Father mouse rubbed the red and green rags and continued, "I understand everything." Yesterday was the Dragon Boat Festival. Xiao Juan's family cooked rice and meat, rice and beans with palm leaves. In addition, I also make sachets ... "

"sachet?" Three little mice asked together, "Is that delicious?" They wondered why mom and dad didn't bring it back!

This time, the mother mouse became proud: "I just know that the sachet is used to repel insects."

Father Mouse said happily, "Anyway, we had a Dragon Boat Festival yesterday."

The mice said, "It's a pity that we only ate zongzi and didn't make sachets!" " "

Mother mouse said, "It's not too late to make up today. I can already make sachets! "

"Really?" Three little mice are very happy.

So mother mouse took three baby mice to make sachets together.

As for Father Mouse, he hung a sachet like the Xiao Juan family. The remaining three strings are hung on the tails of Dabao, Bauer and Bao Xiao respectively.

This Dragon Boat Festival brings great happiness to the mouse family!
