Small popular science: Atlantis, also known as Atlantis, also known as the Great Western Continent, Great Western Province, is located in Europe, is an ancient country with a high degree of civilization development. Legend has it that it was destroyed in the prehistoric flood, and in 350 BC, the ancient Greek philosopher Plato's "Dialogues" was widely circulated in ancient Greece. In the Dialogues, Plato depicts Atlantis for the first time in the form of dialogues. Legend has it that Atlantis considered himself a child of the god of the sea and had a strong worship of the sea. In Search of Atlantis is part of Colin Thompson's Master of Fantasy Philosophy series.
🥳 Introduction:
It tells the story of a dream, the little boy's grandfather is a sea explorer, before his grandfather died, he gave him a wooden box, hoping that the little boy can find the lost Chinese Atlantis on his behalf. The little boy opens the wooden box and embarks on a strange journey.
🚚 Personal Impressions:
The story begins with the opening of the wooden box, and the little boy's world becomes a multidimensional space, and the little boy says that he can only see what he sees.
He couldn't see the critters that lived around him.
Detail control of the heavenly dish! Under the dazzling picture, each page of the picture book has a lot of small details.
📞 Grandpa's wooden box seems to have a lot of secrets:
Popeye Cookie Weevil Flavor, Extra-Long Aquarius, Mermaid Fun Cooking Guide, Bragging Leather Beginner Tutorial, Full Trotten Crackers for "Wilderness Survival Veteran"....
A hut is piled up among these dense debris, and there is a "porridge artifact" that is necessary for sailing in Chinese seas next to it!
Each page of the picture book seems to have a small door, guiding the little boy to find Atlantis, and in the quiet night, even under the wooden planks and on the chimney feel at home!
A small car is parked under the street lamp, the house is warm yellow, and I feel like the mood can be half healed!
The picture book does not particularly render the sadness of parting, but replaces the sadness with many whimsical ideas.
But when the Titanic (parrot) left behind by his grandfather is also gone, the picture book becomes black and white, and the little boy encloses himself in his world.
When he walked out of the basement, the sun came out! He found Atlantis.
The picture on this page is stunning! It turns out that this is where Grandpa has been looking.
🪔Si death is not the end, and neither is parting.
Grandpa and Titanic would return to Atlantis and find a bright little shop in the brightly lit alley to feel their specialty.
And that lost continent and grandfather will always live in the little boy's heart.
Just read the story, it's a good story.
The pictures are very rich, and a closer look at the pictures will also reveal new discoveries, and there are a lot of book information, pirates ☠️, adventure knowledge, etc. hidden in the pictures.
Pictures have realistic parts, imaginations, and metaphors. The pictures are full and the amount of information is so large. A picture can be studied for a long time, and there are even parts that cannot be read, and each time you read it, you will find a different one.
This multi-element illustration from different styles around the world is really a visual treat, and every small scene is a place where the imagination has stayed.
You can make bedtime reading for your child, and if you look carefully for the name of each item, you will find that this set of picture books hides so many details!
