Note to readers:

Children's literature is an indispensable part of every era, and even plays an educational role in the ideology and culture of teenagers and children, and should be the correct guide for teenagers and children.

With the continuous development of society, the cognitive and maturity of teenagers and children are far beyond the past, but they often have only half of them, and even have a certain understanding deviation, so children's literature should especially become a model for the establishment of the correct three views of teenagers and children, and the positive guidance and education of cultural cognition, with the progress and development of generations.

The excellent traditional Chinese culture is undoubtedly a theme that continues to change with the times and is still enduring with the times. Traditional Chinese culture has the characteristics of being broad and profound, with a long history, which has withstood the test of thousands of years and is enduring. Under the continuous precipitation and refinement, as well as the critical inheritance of traditional culture in modern times, and the "take its essence and remove its dross", the excellent parts of traditional culture have been preserved and developed.

Undoubtedly, excellent traditional Chinese culture can play a correct role in guiding and educating young people, and it is a precious life coach with rich connotations.

Among them, the 24 solar terms and traditional festivals, as a cultural combination of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, traditional Chinese medicine health, farming culture, Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, etc., are the essence and crystallization of China's excellent traditional culture, which has irreplaceable nature and has never been derailed from social development for thousands of years.

Therefore, the 24 solar terms and traditional festivals are also the most suitable guides for contemporary children and teenagers to enter the palace of excellent traditional Chinese culture. It is the most suitable theme content for cultivating the interest of contemporary teenagers and children in the excellent traditional Chinese culture.

The personification of the 24 solar terms and traditional festivals is the product of my bold thinking, which can make the culture "live", make it more vigorous, and adapt to the new concepts and requirements of modern development.

Anthropomorphism makes traditional culture more flexible, easier to be accepted by teenagers and children, and even readers of all ages, which can cultivate the interest of teenagers and children in excellent traditional Chinese culture from an early age, and can also better spread excellent traditional Chinese culture to Chinese people of all ages and social strata, and even international friends and the international community, so that it can be carried forward in the new era and in the world.

The excellent traditional Chinese culture is the source of national pride of the Chinese nation, the foundation and soul of the national spirit of the Chinese nation, and it is worthy of inheritance and must be inherited.

As the masters of the future of society, contemporary children and adolescents are the future of the motherland and the future of the Chinese nation.

As the "new youth" of the motherland, I have personally experienced the profound influence and great role of excellent traditional Chinese culture on the new era and the new generation of young people from the social environment in which I live.

Excellent traditional Chinese culture has its significance of advancing with the times in different social backgrounds and eras, and will continue to be endowed with new meanings in different social backgrounds, and will always have its unique charm and irreplaceability, and will never fall behind the times and will not be drowned in the great waves of the times.

Therefore, as sons and daughters of China, we should not let it disappear in the passage of time.

It is the best gift of children's literature to contemporary children and teenagers to let contemporary children and adolescents draw nourishment from the excellent traditional Chinese culture.
