Cai Hao, an art consultant, invited three generations of energetic artists from China to complete 20 works together. Participants included Xue Tong, the author of the first and second Little Pine Awards, the highest picture book award in China, and He, Zhu and Zhou Xiang, the first prize winners of Feng Zikai's original picture book award. With vivid and powerful brushstrokes, the painter interprets his understanding of poetry in the form of pictures and communicates with readers, giving poetry a second life.

A butterfly flew in from outside the bamboo fence.
The pea flower asked the butterfly:
Are you a flying flower?

You can fly too!

How can I fly without wings?

Don't you fly when the wind blows?
When you ask and answer, you seem to see a pure dialogue between two children, which can stimulate their imagination. It is said that Li Na, the illustrator of this children's poem, is a painter who loves flowers, grows flowers and always likes to draw flowers. In order to paint pea flowers well, she once planted pea flowers for a year and observed their every move. In her works, flowers are particularly pleasing, and the elegant and light posture is really beautiful.
