House Dad’s Literary Life

Wen Xuefeng said that it is not completely accurate. Yang Lan went to a publishing house, not only to see one side with Tang Nai, but also to take a sample book and take it back to watch it with him.

I have to say that although Donna’s story is very simple, his paintings are very interesting. The whole book uses two painting styles.

One is a watercolor painting, and it is a watercolor painting that imitates the style of children's painting. The lines are light and soft, and the colors are extremely rich, and they are warm tones!

The other is printmaking, like the print style of two hundred years ago, the color is single, but the lines are concise and refined, and the objects drawn are also extremely realistic.

According to Donna, he used watercolor painting to draw the hero's childhood life in the story, and used the style of print to draw the fantasy of nature's animals, plants, and even some protagonists. The two paintings are of course separate. It exists as a background for text.

It is a student of art majors who can think of two different styles of paintings to express the two different spiritual worlds of the protagonist. It is indeed unique to him!

Of course, the most important thing is to draw a good look. After Yang Lan went home, he handed the book to him. The little girl looked at the pattern above and couldn’t put it down. She was looking forward to reading the picture book with her father one night.

At 8:30 in the evening, Yang Lan went to the room next door and teased for a while before he came over. The showering cockroach could not wait to climb to the bed.

"Hey, come on, you are here." I saw a little girl with a shawl squatting on the quilt, twisting and twisting, and said with a smile.

Of course, the hair is scattered because of the development of the rope shampoo. Later, Murphy helped blow the hair, and he forgot to bring the headband, so the long hair is scattered and the same as the small donkey. .

Now I am playing on the quilt, but my body is straight. The watery cat eyes on the pink pajamas are very stealthy.

But this is not cute!

Yang Lan sat down at the bed, took the book over his lap, then opened the quilt, and the scorpion drilled in like a small voles.

"Hey, I have to watch a lot of pages today!" I got out of the quilt and sat down, still giggling, telling Dad.

Yang Xiao smiled and turned the book over in front of him and himself.

When I saw the first page, I pointed at the animal in front of the little girl and curiously asked, "Hey, is this a monkey?"

"This is a chimpanzee. It is correct to say that the chimpanzee's plush doll is similar to the one we used to buy in the zoo in Australia." Yang Lan explained.

"But it is the same as a monkey." I feel a little confused.

"That's because the color is warmer, so it was black hair, but it looks a bit brown now."

Reading with a companion, of course, is not just about watching patterns. Yang Lan also wants to read the above words together.

"Dad gave Xiaozhen a chimpanzee doll, Xiaozhen called it Pippi." Yang Yan fingers gently crossed, a word and a word pointed to the Achilles.

"Daddy sent..." When I was studying, I fell down and said that my voice was right.

After reading it, she couldn’t wait to turn around and took her father’s clothes and said, “Hey, hey, I like the name, Pippi!”

This picture book is still doing well, the text is concise, and one page is a sentence.

Of course, the interesting picture is the picture above.

After a while, I saw the squirrel in the print style, and I recognized it at once. She said happily: "Squirrel, hey, this is a little squirrel!"

"This?" Yang Lan pointed to the same page, another print asked.

"This is a bird, but I don't know what bird!" He said it was a bit difficult.

"Call it a bird, you see, this should be a bird mother, it is feeding the bird baby." Yang Hao pointed to some details in the painting to see.

“Really yeah!” he said with a surprise. “There are birds, there is one, two baby birds, hey, are you looking at two?”

"It should be three, there is one here, there is no open mouth." Yang Xiao smiled.

However, the squirrel of the print style is easy to recognize, and the squirrels of the watercolors on the next page are a bit strange. After watching it for a while, I didn’t recognize it.

"They are also squirrels!" Yang Xiao said with a smile. "You can recognize it from its image characteristics. What does the squirrel have?"

"Great tail!" He looked at his left hand and looked up at Dad.

"Not only is it very big, but it is also curved. Do you see these few trees on the tree, is it also a roll?" Yang Hao's finger was circled next to him and smiled. "And its ears, small, vertical. stand up……"

"I know, they are all little squirrels!" He grabbed Dad's hand and didn't dare to remind him again. She giggled like a rush.

Although there was nothing to laugh at, but I was very happy, the little girl’s eyes were stunned and there was no sleepiness at all.

"What are these little squirrels doing?" Yang Lan continued to guide and asked.

"They, they are climbing trees." After a while, I gave an answer.

"Climbing trees is not bad, but so many little squirrels are climbing trees, like they are not chasing after you and Chen Shiyun?" Yang Lan asked.

The small mouth opened slightly and he had a small head.

"Come, let's read together: Xiaozhen watched the birds nesting, and the little squirrels chased after the trees."

Rubbing his eyes on the word that Dad pointed at the finger, followed by the word, the voice was a bit fuzzy.

"Building a nest. Knowing the fog, eating the nest... Building a nest." Yang Lan patiently corrected the pronunciation of the cockroach.

"Building a nest..." This is the right thing to do.

"Do you know what it means to build a nest?" Yang asked with a smile.

The little girl shook her head slyly, and did not know how to understand.

"Building a nest is a bird giving it a nest with its baby and building a house. This nest is their house." Yang Lan explained.

Then, Yang Lan throws a question other than the picture book: "Do you know how the bird nests?"

He shook his head again, but this time her eyes widened, revealing the desire for knowledge.

Yang Lan took the sketch paper that was usually placed on the bedside, holding a pencil and painting it. This is also the case in peacetime. He reads with him and each time he will extend outwards to tell some common sense or scientific knowledge. At this time, there is nothing more interesting than his hand-painted painting!

While painting, while explaining, simple and clear, it is easier to understand.

"Hey, why do birds don't live in big houses? Why do you want to nest with grass and branches?" He also raised his own doubts.

In this way, one after another, rich interaction, accompanied by my father, once again spent a fun bedtime reading.

......

When he slept, Yang Lan put the quilt on the little girl before going to the next door.

He and Murphy have not slept so early, and generally Yang Lan will accompany Murphy for a while.

"I found out that you went to the publishing house today and took someone else's book back, but it was more happy than publishing it yourself." Murphy said with a smile.

"That is because it has become a habit to publish books. There is not much freshness." Yang Lan shrugged and smiled. "On the contrary, this time I helped to write a book for someone to change his life." To change the life of him and his children, this sense of accomplishment is pretty good!"

In fact, there is still a little Yang Yan did not say. He feels that there is a sense of accomplishment. In addition to successfully helping others, he has successfully changed the world.

The fund he founded, although it has not yet formed a scale, has actually brought about changes in the world of children's literature! In addition to Donna, there are hundreds of new authors who are participating in this transformation!

I believe that in the future, he can accompany him to see more and more wonderful children's literature!

Before, relying on him alone, constantly carrying the fairy tale classics of the past, the impact can be limited. Now, Yang Lan is also in this world, and actually made some achievements of his own!
