This is a very famous picture book, okay? There’s also a lot of pages of content; did you eat it all? It’s to allow children to understand how colors change when they are mixed… You can’t use an adult’s way of looking at things to judge children’s reading material, okay…?

Please write a note!!! Other than the first picture, all of the images after it are all TM mine! Thanks!

吧啦吧啦balabala：

This is a rather good children’s book, one that has been recommended before for children’s reading courses, to allow a child to understand the three primary colors. It’s very creative.

吃货妮子酱：

Bullshit! With such a thick book, how could it just have those few pages!

I happen to be writing an English thesis on this book. Do you think the author is really simple? He is a humanist illustrator who casually and easily made this book while amusing children on a train and then published it. How come you guys don’t know he is Leo Lionni? A great illustrator.

桐桐胖胖妈：

Children really like it. Really. A child’s world is not the same as ours.

哎哟哥哥hi泥嚎：

He! he! Seeing this kind of microblog post really makes me especially angry!!! Don’t think children’s teachers only need to take care of children eating and sleeping. What we have to learn and know how to do far exceeds what you can imagine! If you can’t understand a children’s picture book, then just shut your mouth, okay? A kindergarten I went to last time that emphasized art had an entire staircase wall decorated with this picture book.

大Vivian：

If you don’t know/understand something, don’t blindly comment. This is a picture book for pre-school children, able to stimulate a child’s unlimited imagination. In the middle, there are also many pictures of little blues and little yellows in class together, playing games, playing hide-and-seek, going into caves that you did not photograph for everyone to see. Even though they are all blobs of different colors, children enjoy reading it. This is Leo Lionni’s classic picture book, which has won major awards in America, and only introduced into China after domestic children’s education expert Peng Yi translated it.

My former primary school teacher bought one for his son to read!! This microblog user is a stupid cunt!! Unfollow, unfollow!

大概只是想换个名字而已_yss：

This can be used for kindergarten class. Picture books are all this price.

Chinese netizens often surprise: Some of our favorite moments when translating trending Chinese internet content is when the Chinese netizen reactions are not what we expected. We love it when they surprise us with what they think, reassure us with what they feel, and maybe even delight us with what they know. chinaSMACK has aspired to a place where people who cannot read the Chinese language can occasionally eavesdrop on what Chinese netizens talk about among themselves. Please help us continue to be this place. Thank you.
