2009-06- 18 Author: Sean Source: The "Little Tiger Baby Children's Literature Newcomer Series" showing Hunan children's literature was launched intensively.
(Reporter Sean) In recent years, a group of young children's literary talents have emerged almost at the same time in Hunan, forming a "Xiang Army phenomenon" in children's literature.
In order to summarize the creative achievements of cutting-edge writers, the Children's Literature Committee of Hunan Writers Association recently launched the "Little Tiger Baby Children's Literature Newcomer Series".
In recent years, there have been a number of young children's literature talents in Hunan, such as Mao Yuner, Yin Huiwen and Li. Z, Liu Huo, Xie Ranzi and He all stood out and gradually gained a certain reputation in the literary world.
Their works are full of the flavor of the times and are widely loved by young readers. Some have won Bingxin Children's Literature Award, Zhang Tianyi Fairy Tale Fable Award, Youth Literature Award and other awards, and some have been selected by various publications and books such as China Children's Literature.
This group of literary rookies embodies three characteristics.
First, people who live and work in primary and secondary schools or children's literature newspapers and periodicals, such as Mao Yuner, Chen Jing and Liu Huo, are still primary and secondary school teachers, while Li. Z, Yin Huiwen and Xie Ranzi are editors of children's literature magazines and other media; Second, the basic skills of creation are solid, and the works are full of life breath; Third, the creative style is unique and distinctive, and the language is fresh and lively. For example, Mao Yuner's children's novels focus on the spiritual growth of children in poor mountain villages, Chen Jing's children's poems highlight the childlike innocence of children in Shan Ye, and the fairy tales of stray animals outline the social picture of children's lives.
Little Tiger Baby Children's Literature Newcomer Series is published by Hunan Children's Publishing House and edited by He Xiaotong, a children's literature writer.
There are 65,438+02 books in the series, including The Magical Red Fruit by Liang Xiaoping. Some of them are eating and playing with fever, Li. Z's prince loves to plunge into the river, Wang's happy melon seeds, Xie Ranzi's wind baby, "Going home with notes", Yin Huiwen's "Jimmy's whale" and Mao Yuner's.
At the same time as the "series", Yang Shicheng, a theorist of children's literature in Hunan Province, published New Horizon of Children's Literature.
The Moon in the Water —— Reading Chen Jing's Children's Poem Sun Fruit
Chen Jing, an educator and writer, is quite influential in the field of children's literature.
His novels and poems were selected as the best children's literature in China in 2007. This year, only eight people were selected for the 5th National Children's Literature Competition, and Chen Jing was one of them. Previously, China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Publishing House published his children's poetry collection "Sun Fruit".
When reading this collection of poems, childhood, hometown, mother, unbreakable bond of love, and the pursuit of dreams came to mind.
It's like looking at thousands of leaves, one is different from the other. I don't know which is the best. Which movie is the most important? Just like watching the moon in the water, one by one, I wonder which is the most round? Which is the brightest? The language is simple and naive, giving children a lot of beauty and fantasy.
For example, he wrote about spring: "Spring/Lots of flowers are blooming/Lots of holes/Let's guess." A few words, childlike innocence and childlike interest are all in it; Another example is when he wrote about his childhood: "Where is his childhood?" /I searched every corner of the room/I ran all over the lanes/streams in my hometown/I asked the little fish swimming around/under the tree/I asked Uncle Niu who was resting ... "The fairy-tale artistic technique not only made up for the lack of poetry, but also created a childlike innocence as lovely as smoke.
In my mind, the real joy of life is only in childhood; There are no other age groups.
It should be said that education is the unique advantage of Chen Jing's children's literature creation.
He knows the child's nature, temperament, what he likes and dislikes, and a tireless childlike innocence always jumps at his pen tip; At the same time, it can be seen that it is the life in the mountain village that nourishes his literary cells. One scene and one thing written are full of innocence and simplicity, which makes people have different dreams in Mengtong.
Such as leaves, scarecrows, dog tail grass and so on.
These poems alone are familiar and close.
I grew up near a well where I could draw water. I was thirsty and wanted to bend down to drink water and look at his dirty face at the same time. When I was a child, I was familiar with grazing lawns. Tired, I want to lie down for a while, watch clouds gather in the sky, birds come and go, or blow a dandelion with many umbrellas.
Is this just a poem for children? No, it is also a green spiritual home for readers.
Some people may say it is "sentimental", "simple" and "poetic".
I beg to differ, because this is a derogatory or misreading of children's poetry, and the definition itself is very poor.
As we all know, love is only divided into depth; The reason is only the difference of authenticity; Poetry is the most popular, what's wrong with it.
Of course, if it is a chat after drinking, you say one thing and he says another; One sentence a day, one sentence a day, let it go! The article was originally a world rumor; Elegant poetry is no exception.
In today's logistics society, the fate of poetry depends largely on the recognition of readers. Otherwise, why did the British writer Wilde say that half of the works were written by the author and half by the readers?
Chen Jing was confused and lost, and went to Changsha * * * College of Literature for further study. Maybe this is an exploration.
I suddenly realized that the road is not found, but in my heart; There is a road in the heart, and the road is naturally there; If there is no road in your heart, you can't find the road.
Chen Jing's awakening is like a blooming flower in spring.
Since then, his poems have been as beautiful as flowers and pure as jade in Children's Literature, Xiaoxi, China Campus Literature and Juvenile Intelligence Development Newspaper, gradually embellishing his increasingly mature landscape.
But Chen Jing is indifferent to fame and fortune, and he is not good at publicity. He can be lonely and lonely.
Loneliness is quiet, quiet can think, and thinking is profound.
I used to write everything, but it is a matter of recent years to empathize with children's literature creation.
However, it is not a temporary passion or interest, but a heartfelt call.
I admire him for his diligence and persistence.
I realized something and thought about it, so I wrote these words, which is the words I read "Sun Fruit".
If the preface and postscript are wreaths presented by two famous artists to the author, then my speech is just a straw hat. I wonder if Chen Jing would like to wear it?
You Yang Chen Jing's Children's World
Chen Jing, a mountain village teacher in Wei Yuan's hometown, is sincere, simple and honest, quiet and elegant, which is really worthy of the name.
I remember one hot noon eight years ago, when he rang my doorbell for the first time, he blushed and asked me to write an inscription for the composition "Spreading Wings" for the school district in front of their company.
At that time, the farmer's son, who had just graduated from the Chinese Department of Hunan Institute of Education, resolutely returned to his hometown to teach and was happy to be a "king of the children".
In order to effectively improve students' writing level, he opened the door of composition class, led students into Shan Ye, observed life, analyzed materials, and asked questions impromptu.
Not only can children cross the ocean and show their magical powers, but they can also "write in the water" and express their opinions.
I appreciate this bold and effective teaching reform, and tell him that there is a Zhang Youde in Henan. He wrote and told stories when he was a primary school teacher, and later became a famous children's writer in China.
Chen Jing nodded resolutely, obviously excited, but didn't spit out half a sentence.
Surprisingly, after eight years of hard work, Chen Jing finally watered the flowers of campus literature with sweat and painstaking efforts, showing a magical and wonderful children's world.
In the past eight years, he has published hundreds of children's literature works all over the country.
Some won provincial and municipal creative awards, and some were collected by People's Literature Publishing House.
He and his students are among the best in the national composition contest for middle school teachers and students.
Millions of young readers got to know this young "teacher writer" through China Education Newspaper, Youth Literature and Art, Xiaoxi, Youth Intelligence Development Newspaper, Little Angel Newspaper and Children's Literature.
Chen Jing is a member of China Prose Literature Society, Hunan Writers Association, Poetry Committee of Hunan Writers Association and director of Shaoyang Writers Association.
Not long ago, he was selected for further study in * * * College of Literature and participated in the provincial key young writers' class.
It seems that the predecessor of Henan children's literature has been encouraging him to catch up through thick and thin.
Why are Chen Jing's works favored by children's literature circles and urban and rural readers? I think the most precious thing is that his children's world is full of the unique life atmosphere and customs of children in mountain villages.
Just look at the topic: catching loach, sending birds home, falling in love with sweet potatoes, raising cattle, and under chestnut trees, wolves will eat dad, ah, fairy tofu … it will be refreshing.
If you are with the children in the mountains again, roll up your trouser legs and go to the fields to catch loach after the rain clears; When the sun goes down, take up your schoolbag and send the bird home; When it gets dark, drive the mountain road to the outer village to bask in Gu Ping and watch TV; Hungry, eating sweet potatoes, eating fairy tofu, and picking up fruits falling from the sky under chestnut trees ... really feels like golden couple in fairy tales.
Chen Jing's pen is sometimes like a wand, sometimes like a crayon, and sometimes like a melodious and charming shepherd's flute. Between the lines, it is full of childlike innocence and fun.
"Catch Misgurnus anguillicaudatus" describes the scene when children in the mountains go to the fields: "The wind is warm and fresh; The rainbow stands in the sky like a colorful bridge.
Running around, singing; The water is sparkling and smiling. "In just a few words, the children's happy infatuation with the scene after a storm comes a calm sets each other off and blends in with the scene.
According to children's intuition, running water is not only singing, but also laughing. The wind is not only warm but also fresh.
This kind of singing and laughing, a kind of warmth and freshness, shows the unique physical and mental feelings of mountain children to the fullest.
In The Stream in My Heart, the author describes children in the mountains playing with fish in the stream.
It makes people feel the same: "The fish in the water sometimes swim around our feet like we play games, so they touch around naughtily and itch, making us giggle."
When everyone is holding it with their hands and wants to tickle, they can't hold it. "
These examples vividly reflect children's childlike innocence under the influence of truth, goodness and beauty.
However, children's world is not a paradise, and it is inextricably linked with the real society.
Once children in the mountains encounter false and ugly phenomena, they will wake up from ignorance and think and ask questions in their own way.
Ye Ye, a rural kindergarten child in "The Wolf Want to Eat Dad", listened to the teacher's story of "The Wolf is Coming" and knew that the liar was finally eaten by the wolf.
She remembered that her father told a lie to his grandfather who came to ask for the index of the homestead that night and ran home anxiously to see if his father had been eaten by a wolf.
Admittedly, this is a fairy tale, and Yaya's father will definitely not be eaten by wolves.
However, in the pure hearts of children, these liars will be eaten by wolves!
Teenagers took a secret punishment for cheating children to catch fish in the stream and sell money for gluttony: "While it was dark, they smashed the glass of Erlazi's house with stones. "
Naturally, children themselves will make mistakes and have regrets.
But they can correct their mistakes and have no bad feelings.
In Stealing Pears, several children went to Uncle Fu's orchard to steal pears on a moonlit night. The old couple lost it and didn't even scold it. The next day they gave it to their neighbor's children.
In this way, children who steal pears are no longer as happy as when they used to eat sweet and refreshing pears. They think the pears in their hands are heavy and unpalatable.
Later, on a moonlit night, they went out quietly and hung the bag with rice on Uncle Fu's pear tree.
The author didn't write the source of rice, but readers can see at a glance that it was collected from their respective homes by small partners who stole pears, and every grain was covered with guilt!
Thanks to Chen Jing for bringing us such a colorful children's world.
I am convinced that in this children's paradise, the flowers of the motherland will bloom more vigorously and brilliantly.
(You Yang: a famous writer, former chairman of Shaoyang Federation of Literary and Art Circles and chairman of Shaoyang Writers Association)
On March 28th, 2004, it was published in Shaoyang Daily, No.2 issue of New Flowers in 2004 and No.4 issue of Literature and Art Garden sponsored by Hunan Federation of Literary and Art Circles in 2004.
The Pure Beauty and Humanistic Spirit of Shaoyang Daily
Simple soil, pure mountain spring and fresh breeze. This is a poem by Chen Jing.
Poetry is like a person, and Chen Jing feels as good as poetry.
I have the opportunity to get in touch with his poems frequently.
After retirement, I organized a composition class and subscribed to many newspapers and magazines for children to read, so I often read his children's poems.
Watching the children copy his poems in a notebook, I can't help but light a cigarette and miss this young writer who is a teacher in Longhuishan.
In July 2002, Liu Peng, editor-in-chief of Shaoyang Daily, Kuang Guotai, a provincial poet, and several literary friends from Xinning and Longhui went to Simenmen Town of Longhui, walked past Shiqiaopu Old Street and took a nap in Chen Jing's living room.
This is the hometown of Wei Yuan, the first great thinker who opened his eyes to see the world in China's modern history.
Looking at the green mountains and green waters of Wei Yuan's hometown from the open window, I have no intention of nostalgia, but this Chen Jing around me has caused my thoughts to gather.
Chen Jing is approaching the age of no doubt, but she looks much younger.
A heroic face, a pair of clear eyes like a mountain spring.
He has little worldly politeness and few words, and his brow is full of meditation.
He is obsessed with literature.
As early as when I was in middle school, I couldn't bear to read a book about Gorky's childhood. After turning off the lights at night, I hid under the covers and read with a flashlight.
Chen Jing also has a family, which makes him close to literature and obsessed with it. The cultural atmosphere has a profound influence on him.
His eldest brother Chen Zaochun works in People's Literature Publishing House, and his eldest brother and sister-in-law are the department heads of the central media.
When the headmaster was awarded Tongda Xianhui, the wife of an excellent teacher in the province, he fully supported him in reading and writing.
This kind of support itself requires cultivation and understanding.
This understanding makes Chen Jing have a rare happiness.
Thanks to his wife, Chen Jing can take a pen lightly and live easily.
You Yang, the former chairman of Shaoyang Federation of Literary and Art Circles, summed up Chen Jing in eight words: sincere and sincere, quiet and elegant.
Chen Jing himself explained this in two sentences: one sentence said, "I can sit on the bench and endure loneliness." One said, "Reduce the weight of ordinary people and weigh them." That year, he went to work in Guangdong reporter station of China Youth Daily. People say, "Man struggles upwards, water flows downwards, loaches are mixed in the river, and dragons are churning in the sea." People from Chen Jing and Guangzhou mix together.
However, a year later, he came back and asked him why, but he smiled faintly. "It's too busy there to create." In the township middle school, he also worked as an official and a principal.
However, he voluntarily resigned from his coveted "official" position. The reason is still the same sentence: "To be an official, you have to have meetings, study, talk to teachers and students, deal with various inspections, and have no time for literature."
This is an obsession as pure as a mountain stream.
This obsession is distressing.
This reminds me of a sentence once said by the late literary master Zhou Libo: "Being indifferent to fame and fortune, obsessed with pursuit, this is the quality of learning to be an official."
The years of township middle schools are fresh and calm, like a camellia blooming in the depths of the mountains. Chen Jing is like a bee, obsessed with this mountain flower. He works hard and silently collects flowers to make honey.
After several years of hard work, hundreds of poems have been published in various newspapers and periodicals.
His works are often published in China Writers, China Education News, Selected Miniature Novels and many children's newspapers.
The book Zen Thought published by People's Literature Publishing House has been included in his prose, and he often hears the news that his works have won prizes.
I have a children's newspaper, and I have his column on children's poems.
Efforts will be rewarded, Chen Jing's persistence will eventually be rewarded, and the golden autumn of harvest is coming.
People have pursuits, and life will be enriched.
Spoony pursuers will live a happy life.
For Chen Jing, a "teacher writer" who teaches, thinks and writes in Qianmen Town Middle School in Longhui, every day the sun is new and every dream is sweet.
It is said that he is planning a novella reflecting the problems of rural education. I have no doubt about his success. I smiled and looked forward to it.
Due to the agitation of the economic tide, many of our writers can't keep their lamps and desks and go to sea one after another.
There are fewer and fewer scholars who are obsessed with literature like Chen Jing.
However, our nation, our culture, our science and technology, our history, is it not because of these infatuated pursuers that we have a beating pulse and a forward pace?

Scanning Shaoyang Literary World published in June 5438+February 2004 was published in Shaoyang Daily on June 5438+1October 9, 2005. With its pure beauty and humanistic spirit,
-Appreciate Chen Jing's essay "Hide and Seek" in Baixi.
After reading Chen Jing's essay "Hide and Seek" (published in Wugang Daily 1998 February 13, then Little Angel Daily 1999 June 10 October 18), the author seems to have returned to his childhood and felt happy.
At that time, the sky was blue, the sun was warm and the wind was drunk.
The innocence and beauty of innocence can be felt, touched and heard.
With the care of humanistic spirit, the author reproduces a picture of playing with children, filling the long-lost innocence and beauty in people's hearts.
"When the warm wind blows, Niu Bao and other partners in the yard and I will roll up our trouser legs and go to the ground." Children's hearts are pure and beautiful. As long as the warm wind blows, they can do childlike things for no reason.
"After the rain stopped, Niu Bao and I preferred to go to the fields." Not why, because "the wind is warm and fresh; The rainbow stands in the sky like a colorful bridge.
Running around, singing; The water is sparkling and smiling. "The mind that has not been polluted by the social environment also shows pure affection between people.
"I" fell, and the caught loach ran away: "... ran over to ask me questions, help me take off my wet clothes, and help me wipe the mud.
When I saw my empty bamboo basket, I brought one loach after another. Niu Bao wiped the sweat and kept screaming; "Choose the big one to send, choose the big one to send ..." The author writes the soul beauty of innocence incisively and vividly, and after reading it, it is like a spring breeze; Such as clear water to wash the heart; If the wine has three dishes and five flavors; For example, ice cream in summer and dog meat in winter.
We live in today's world, which is beautiful on the whole, but we can't rule out the ugliness, filth and intrigue in society.
The essay "Catch Misgurnus anguillicaudatus" gives birth to a bright and beautiful lotus flower in the mud, which opens up a beautiful mind with the world closed or left unlocked.
The author intentionally or unintentionally thought of the humanistic spirit, but what was revealed in his works was his concern for this humanistic spirit.
In the past years, there have been some rough works in China literature and art, but what is attractive and inspiring is that kind of idealism.
The essay "Catch Misgurnus anguillicaudatus" laments the loss of a beautiful mind, permeates humanistic consciousness, and constructs a beautiful and pure environment and a beautiful and pure mind.
The language of the essay "Catch Misgurnus anguillicaudatus" is natural and fluent, and the author takes care of life with beautiful eyes, creating a new beautiful context and playing a good artistic effect.
At the end of the article, the author takes care of the traditional habits of readers and sets a small * * * to make the article more infectious.
