As a disseminator of environmental education, art education and family education, in reading, I am accustomed to discussing strange and strange things that can be deepened, dissecting the basic and regenerative nature of the story, and finding scientific methods that most families can refer to. So, when The Story Behind the Return to the Wolves came along, I almost couldn't wait to read it, while revisiting the documentary, short videos, and stories of The Return to the Wolves. The doubts that remained in the mind for those years also have corresponding reasonable answers in this reading.
Just as he raised the lone wolf "Grimm" and released it back into the grassland, the author actually wrote this book with courage and ambition. survive. Love. freely. Every proposition is grand. How do you touch on these open and deep propositions? This book can obviously serve as a kind of channel. Open the book and read quietly as you follow the stories of fathers, mothers, daily chores, and wolves in The Story Behind the Return to the Wolves. Slowly, the meaning of the book becomes the same as that of "Green", trance-like reality, and the seemingly scattered multi-perspective narrative gradually has a precise focus, and the theme is becoming more and more obvious. The deep and shallow intertwining of a woman and a wolf, a man, and a herdsman, complemented by another woman who is the narrator of the bystander, becomes vivid and full of unique meaning. There is no doubt that this is a good book to recommend to more children and more families.
"The Story Behind the Return to the Wolves" after reviewing all the wonderful original stories, deeply reveals "why there is such a person as Li Weiyi", helping children learn to find their own best position and direction to become what kind of person, in addition to the joint efforts of family and environment, more by their own choice. Almost all parents want their children to be true to themselves, and most families are often faced with the problem of how to train their children to stick to themselves in the face of many obstacles and difficulties. Li Weiyi is an ordinary person. Why can she conform to her heart and become the brave one who helps the little wild wolf to be born, helps the little wild wolf grow, and finally helps the wild wolf that has sprouted by nature to return to the group? Before Li Weiyi met "Green", in his art class, he supplemented the knowledge taught by the biology teacher to the students, allowed the students to create works with a variety of materials, used sitcoms to give lectures, and gave the summary that the language teacher would give at the end of the class... Yes, Li Weiyi is very ordinary and unique. She seeks herself and becomes herself in her own unique way on every ordinary day.
Man and wolf have a delicate relationship and are not easy to make friends with. Although the boom set off by Jiang Rong's "Wolf Totem" many years ago inspired people to look at the steppe wolf fairly, and the image of the lamentable wolf created by Jack London's "Snow Tiger" earlier also broke people's stereotypes, the wolf that was tightly glued to the "treacherous", "ferocious" and "terrible" stereotypes in traditional Chinese culture was still rejected and resented by many people.
"The Story Behind the Return to the Wolves" reinforces the introduction to the knowledge of wolf races, and some of them may even make you feel as if you have suddenly left the story itself and entered a large team of scientific research on wolf families. However, this design has a deep meaning, so that readers, mainly young readers, have empathy and resonance under the premise of understanding, thus giving birth to the recognition of wolf justice and maximizing our understanding of the role of wolves in the natural environment.
Just as the presence of the Bengal tiger is a terrible harm to the spotted deer, its role as a key species in the ecological balance is significant. The same is true of wolves represented by "Grimm" in the steppe. Li Weiyi's rescue and help, placed at a high latitude, is not only a woman's compassion and kindness, but also a kind of feeling and reason that have been lost in the blind arrogance of human beings. After reading, the children can realize that this grassland adventure is ostensibly that people rescue wolves, but in fact, they help humans themselves.
"The Story Behind the Return to the Wolf Pack" gives modern parents excellent enlightenment, exploring the topic of "why a person (a group of people) helps a wolf return to the wolf pack has a direct impact and reference value on modern family education", laying a spiritual background of "respecting all things" and "respecting nature" for children in a good family relationship, so that the light of civilization is from oneself and the other In this book, we see the impact of family relations on children, as well as the relationship between children and other living organisms after they grow up.
Li Weiyi was able to establish a harmonious and natural relationship with the wolf, not from the moment she picked up "Green" in front of the wolf's den, nor did she quietly return to her home in the city with "Green", the relationship between the two began long ago from her birth in the family formed by the two characters of "father + mother".
Li Weiyi's mother was afraid of animals from the beginning, and all the proximity was because she loved her daughter unconditionally, which was considered to be love for Wu and Wu. The biggest role played by Li Weiyi's father stemmed from his words and deeds and subtlety, so that his daughter had the motivation to dare to make the feat of approaching and rescuing. The power of the family is incomparably strong.
When I read this book, I naturally thought of two people. One is the Austrian painter and botanist Joy Adamson, who wrote the documentary novel Elsa wild, who helped the domesticated lioness return to the forest, allowing us to see the unique and intimate relationship between humans and wild animals, while also believing in the attempt to "domesticated beasts can also be accepted by their kind and survive in their natural state". It was her husband who gave her the courage to make this choice, and the harmonious family made the power of love stronger.
The other is Dr. Jane Goodall, a British naturalist and ethologist who wrote "With Chimpanzees." Dr. Zhen walked into the African jungle for decades, and then returned to the city to establish a green environmental protection public welfare organization "Roots and Shoots" in order for wild chimpanzees to have a real life, and now in his eighties, he is still running around the world to speak for environmental protection. It was her mother who gave her the courage to make this choice, and the wisdom of love was so enduring by a family with a confluence of selfless feelings.
"Grimm" is a "fairy tale from the wilderness", sending "Grimm" back to its own homeland makes Li Weiyi miss and let go, just like her parents' concern and support for her. Leaving is not heartless, letting go is more deeply loved. When "Green" brought the red scarf of the human mother who had been treasured for seven years to his mother, this tearful "man-wolf love" was not a clear proof of the harmony between man and nature, people and people, mutual respect and care!
