As we all know, the highest value of literature lies in the essence of its creation. An idea, an idea, a train of thought, from conception to writing, from illusion to landing, have undergone countless thoughts and arguments, and it is very necessary to successfully express a point of view, a discussion of correct values and outlook on life. After all, it's a deliberate process that allows people to understand something by reading.
There is an inevitable connection between reality and fairy tales, and the significance of saying this is that the two affect each other and have positive significance. Written by Dutch writer Will Hagen and Dutch illustrator Ryan Putwood, a long-time friend, Dwarfs is a documentary fairy tale that exudes wonder and mystery. The biggest feature of this book is the dwarf race as the protagonist, what surprising and mysterious stories have happened in this fictional world where dwarfs and humans coexist?
The image of the dwarf appears in many European and American literary works, and the author, as an authority who has studied the dwarf for more than twenty years, has created this "historically visible" dwarf race development process with a scientific and rigorous attitude. The book begins with a dwarf statue discovered around 1200 AD, and the types of dwarfs are divided into forest areas, sand dunes, gardens, farms, houses, and Siberian dwarfs, with a height of about 15 centimeters, and some races may have a gap of several centimeters.
The ancient dwarf civilization will very early calculate time according to the laws of the universe; they, like humans, will also fall in love, get married, and form a family, and the marriage honeymoon trip of the dwarfs is also very rich, they use the help of various animals to travel around the world, such as geese, swans, foxes, otters, etc., can take them to heaven and earth, climb mountains and water.
Talking about the various crafts of the dwarfs, I have to say that this is very surprising. Leaving aside the development of human civilization, the world in which the dwarfs used their wisdom alone is enough to shock people. When they build a house, they carefully calculate the location, the length of the passage, the trap of the entrance, the citation well in the house, the sewer, etc., all of which show their ability. Moreover, they also learned to make a fire, use honey to make lit candles, boil water, take a bath, and do everything.
Animals are indispensable friends of the dwarves, and the animals will help the dwarfs in all kinds of work they can, such as moles will help open sewers, otters will lead dwarfs across the river, rabbits will send their hair to dwarfs to make clothes, and dwarfs will rescue animals when they encounter danger or disease, such as helping foxes catch lice, helping fighting deer to uncover entangled horns, rescuing rabbits that fall into hunter traps, and so on. The dwarves maintained a good relationship with the animals before, which seemed to be a symbiotic equilibrium.
There is no obvious division of labor in the dwarf family, and men, women, and children perform their duties in a conventional atmosphere, without strife, without jealousy, with a peaceful posture. Men make pottery, carpentry, and blow glassware, women cook, make clothes, and feed children, and their lives are quiet and peaceful.
Through the fictional world of dwarfs, the author reflects the strong contrast between the human world and the natural world. Especially at the end of the book, the dialogue between the two authors and the dwarfs triggers the destructive impact of the development of human civilization on the world to this day. The depletion of resources, environmental pollution, tens of thousands of genocides in the animal and plant kingdoms, human egoism dominates behavior and consciousness, while dwarfs live in an indisputable fantasy world, and the two form a sharp contrast.
For children, the story of the dwarf is wonderful, but it is also necessary to understand the deep meaning behind the story. In addition, the beautiful illustrations conform to the aesthetics of all call lovers, all the consultations about dwarfs, and it is enough to read this book.
