Life Is Life - Best Chinese Children's Literature

'Life Is Life' is a collection of essays written by Zhang Haidi. It tells the growth story of a naughty little girl who is very mischievous-plays around all day, climbs the roof catching cocks and releases her cousin's butterflies into the autumn wind. This girl in the book may be a little romantic. She fell in love with a boy when she was eight and a half years old, whistled Soviet songs and also wanted to dance ballet. Later, she taught kids to the sing 'Big Devils to their heads cut off' at primary school in the village. When she was young, she was growing up with long hair and dedicated to reading and learning so that the eyes can see the farther and higher sky. And then she attended the United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women. From this collection of essays, we can see the rich emotions of a kind-hearted, strong, persistent woman writer of true characters.
