The new book
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is warmly
welcomed by the children in China. It sells well across China. You can see and
hear the advertisements about the book here and there.
Why is the book so attractive to children? After reading it, I was attracted
by the magic world. I can not help asking: where is our own
Harry Potter?
China has a long history and colorful culture. With a large market of
teenagers, China published (出版) many popular books among children.
However, why are the present books not as good as those foreign ones?
Firstly, quite a number of children's books are focused on teaching, and they
have little interest value. Reading them, children often have a feeling of being
"educated".Certainly, they don't like them. Secondly, fewer children like the
same stories, but most Chinese books are usually much the same. One knows the
ending as early as in the beginning. Finally, the writers seldom think about
children's needs.
First-class Reading for children should be interesting, and written in their
language.
