While the voles were busy collecting food for the winter, Ah Fu, the vole, sat alone. He told everyone that he was also working, just collecting other things-sunshine, colors and vocabulary.

Winter is long and cold. Slowly, everyone eats up the food. At this time, Afo took out what he "collected" and shared it with everyone.

About the author

Leo Lionni was born in Amsterdam, the Netherlands on May 5, 191. His father was a Belgian Jewish businessman and his mother was a soprano. Because his home is near the art museum and his uncles are architects, painters and art collectors, he has been immersed in a rich artistic atmosphere since he was a child. At the age of 13, he moved to America and Italy with his family.

in 1935, he received his doctorate in economics. In 1945, there was a wave of anti-Semitism in Europe, and they were forced to flee the United States with their families. Leonie is a talented and unconstrained artistic genius, who is proficient in painting, sculpture, graphic design, printing, ceramics, photography, etc. He was the design director of Fortune magazine for 1 years.

humanism and rationalism run through his works from beginning to end. Although Leonie was 49 years old when he started to create picture books, he started a new era of picture books. The New York Times once gave him such a compliment: "If picture books are a new visual art of our time, Leo Lionni is the master of this style. His picture books have won numerous awards, among which One Inch Worm, Little Black Fish, Voldemort Afo, Alexander and Clockwork Mouse won the American Cadillac Award four times in 1961, 1964, 1968 and 197 respectively. On October 11th, 1999, this master of picture books, known as the "color magician", died in Italy at the age of 89.

What is the vole with the poppy doing on the stone?

The ring lining of this book is derived from the English name of vole.

The title page of this book faces away from our Buddha.

Tell us where the voles live, and see if the voles have any neighbors.

In order to make the winter better, the little vole family is busy, and only Ah Fu hangs his eyes.

When someone asks Ah Fu, "Why don't you work?" It "said it was working and gathering sunlight." Children, find out which one is Buddha.

Ah Fu is still not working, sitting on a stone, collecting colors. Other mice are especially hardworking.

Every time he doesn't work, the other mice blame him a little, but Ah Fu says he is collecting words.

Winter is coming. They all hide in stone walls, because they are well prepared and have a lot to eat at first. They are still a happy family.

Because winter is too long, they feel the stone wall is very cold after eating all the prepared food. Will Buddha bring warmth to everyone?

This is Buddha. Please close your eyes. It will tell a story. It brought the collected sunlight and colors to everyone, and the voles no longer felt cold!

Afo turned the words he collected into poems, and everyone was very happy and felt warm after listening to them. We look at four little voles, and they never have the spirit to become powerful.

When everyone praised him as a little poet, Ah Fu was a little shy, but said, "Yes, I know."

this is the back cover, which just corresponds to the front cover.

This book is displayed in two ways: tearing and painting. Ah Fu, the vole, if you look closely, you will find that it is a little different from other mice. Its tail is tilted. Its eyes are also different from those of the other four mice. Although the book doesn't tell you which is Afo, children should find Afo soon.

In this book, we can see that little mice can get along with others especially. When other little mice are busy, it seems that Ah Fu has done nothing. In the end, although I was a little blamed, I still didn't feel unhappy.

voles also love to share. The food collected by other voles is given to Afo. Afo shares the sunshine, colors and words with other voles when everyone is depressed.

Ah Fu knows what role he plays in this group. He is not an expert in physical labor, and he chooses to enrich everyone's spiritual life. When someone complains, it still chooses to do it without being taken away.

Especially when everyone praised him as a poet, he blushed and said, "Yes, I know." Seeing its confidence, its expression is very infectious.

both adults and children should know themselves correctly. Everyone can only bring happiness and happiness to everyone if they find their own advantages and give full play to them!
