About This Novel

"Little John" can be called "the companion piece to "The Little Prince". It is a classic philosophical fairy tale that was popular in Europe at the end of the 19th century. Lu Xun praised it as "a blank poem, a fairy tale for adults" and refused to be nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature. The protagonist, Little John, is accompanied by an elf named "Xuan'er", roaming in the fantasy nature, and looking for a "big book that explains life's questions", and later returns to real life with love for humans. Little John's wonderful journey and long search are a fable for young people's growth, and a painful realization conveyed through beautiful fantasy. This excellent fairy tale with both literary talent and philosophy has a beautiful and gentle tone at the beginning, then turns sad and grim, and ends with a bright and positive ending, but also melancholy and tragic, which symbolizes a person's journey from childhood to adulthood. Little John is with the universe, and his love transcends people, gods, animals, plants, and gender. Love is the essence of all things, and little John is the eternal boy.

It's okay, it's also good for our studies. Reading more of these books can improve our writing skills. Reading these books is better than reading comics. It is recommended that everyone download and read it.
