What are the traditional children's stories in China?

We are familiar with folk fairy tales, such as: the magic pen horse, tadpoles looking for their mothers, ponies crossing the river, waiting for rabbits, Kuafu chasing the sun, Jingwei reclaiming the sea, Gong Yu moving mountains, monkeys fishing for the moon, tortoise and rabbit racing, Thumbelina, Du Kang drunken Liu Ling, Sean and the old man, Jichang learning arrows, Li Guang shooting tigers, Bao Fen judging stones, Bao Gong breaking geese, hunters Talepool, Avanti and the emperor, etc.

Folk fairy tales are fantasy stories created and circulated by the people and suitable for children to read. Its story is bizarre and moving, with strong fantasy and rich imagination, which is well received by the masses.

There are two kinds of fantasy in folk fairy tales: one is the fantasy plot that runs through the whole text, and the other is the local fantasy plot. There are two starting points for the development of fantasy plots in folk fairy tales: one is to praise labor and help simple workers; One is to love the kind and the oppressed poor. In short, it reflects the desire of good people for a better life. Fairy tales always end with honest, kind, simple, insulted and oppressed people getting good results, and all the bad guys fail in the end. In dealing with characters' personalities, we often use sharp contrast methods. For example, two brothers with opposite moral character, the master and servant are different, and so on. After many repetitions and various entanglements, the good guys and bad guys finally get the opposite ending, which shows people's enthusiastic praise for kindness, integrity and hard work and sharp criticism of ugly behaviors such as greed, selfishness and cruelty.
