Since I was a child, I’ve always been interested in reading fairy tales. At that time, I had no idea that reading them was actually good for me. I read them just for fun! Now I become a successful writer. When looking back, I finally realize the 1. of reading fairy tales. Let me share with you.

Make Reading Fun

I still have clear memories of excitement each time when my mother came home2.a book of fairy tales. It opened an interesting world to me. Having fun reading is one of the first steps in developing a life-long habit of reading. I truly believe that our 3. in fairy tales can help us to read more challenging novels during school years.

Teach about Story Structure(结构)

It is important to understand4.stories work. Fairy tales follow a clear beginning

(once upon a time…), middle(problem) and an end(they lived happily ever after). It can not only help us learn the story structure but also improve our writing skills.

Build Imagination

In my childhood, I always imagined that one day I could disappear from our own world and then with magic travel to5.world. There I can find dragons flying, animals talking and princes fighting. In fairy tales, anything is6.! When our minds are open to all of these possibilities, we may later have an out-of-the-box thinking style.

Teach Right from Wrong

A strong moral(道德) lesson is a part of every fairy tale’s DNA. Take Beauty and the Beast for example.7.the Beast is far from the handsome prince he used to be, Beauty is still able to find goodness in his heart. It teaches us people are more than their hairstyle and clothing.

As I wrote in my latest book, “If you want to be excellent, read fairy tales. If you want to be more excellent, read more fairy tales.” So why not go to a bookstore this weekend, find your favorite fairy tale and start 8. it?
